Description

Assessing the future is a vital part of informing public policy decisions. This book explores the widespread use of scenarios, which serve as alternative hypothetical futures to help guide decision-makers. While scenario development is a common practice, research shows that the way professionals actually use these tools often differs from established theory. This gap has significant implications for how future images should be interpreted and highlights a clear need to update current theoretical frameworks. Based on an intensive five-year study of how experts assess the future, this work provides a deep look at the real-world application of foresight. It examines the disconnect between theory and practice, offering insights into how professionals navigate uncertainty. For anyone involved in economics, policy-making, or risk management, this text provides a necessary perspective on the reality of scenario-based planning and the evolution of foresight methodologies.
