Futures

Futures for the Interdisciplinary Study of Futures, Anticipation and Foresight. Futures is concerned with medium and long-term futures of cultures and societies, science and technology, economics and politics, environment and the planet, individuals and humanity. Futures is at the cutting edge of developments in the theory and practice of futures-oriented research across many disciplines, opening-up new ways of theorising, studying, challenging and cultivating human anticipation

Futures aims to build substantive research and knowledge about the relationships between humanity and its possible futures. It welcomes: new knowledge about humanity's diverse anticipatory practices and how to understand, challenge, develop or enhance them; novel futures-oriented research emerging at the intersections between and beyond disciplines that provides insights into humanity's (and posthumanity's) changing relationship with the future; and the highest quality scholarship in the field of futures/prospective studies.

Above all, it is a journal that seeks to analyse and challenge uses, misuses and abuses of futures, and to build robust knowledge about the conditions for creating socially just, sustainable and emancipatory futures.
