27 Why does policy need foresight? Research foresight is...the only plausible response to resolving conflicts over priority-setting... Foresight provides a systematic mechanism for coping with that complexity & interdependence as it affects long-term decisions on research, in particular facilitating policy-making where integration of activities across several fields is vital Martin & Irvine (1989, 3) Policy Foresight: What Works & Why? photo: flickr.com/photos/emio_me/ / Greg Van Alstyne slab.ocadu.ca

36 Why participation? ordinary citizens are neither allowed to participate in defining the goals of a society, nor are their visions of desirable societies taken seriously by the ruling elite, except as part of electoral calculations. Futures studies seek to subvert such status quo [&] keep options open Nandy, 1996, Bearing Witness to the Future Policy Foresight: What Works & Why? Greg Van Alstyne slab.ocadu.ca

39 Why strangemaking? Is there a danger of bringing too much imagination to these problems? Do we risk losing ourselves in a maze of bizarre improbabilities? It has usually been the lack of imagination, rather than the excess of it, that has caused unfortunate decisions and missed opportunities.
