Three things that bother me about futures & foresight scholarship

Three big wishes for futures scholarship:

  1. Ontology of futures: Clarity on when we do and do not pluralize “futures”
  2. Duality of methods: Distinction between empirical and practice-based “methods”
  3. Twin role of theory: Acknowledgement of the role(s) for theory in our scholarship

Presented: Foreshadowing Conference (Roskilde, Denmark, July 24, 2025
