Summary: AN ACADEMIC VIEW OF THE FUTURE
Comment: is again presented by Daniel Bell, Stephen R Graubard and colleagues in 'Toward the Year 2000.' This "work in progress" was started in the 1965 by the Commission on the Year 2000 of the American Academy of Arts and Sciences. It does not try to "predict" the future but rather to uncover and explore those social factor which will have a long term effect. The some 50 scholars contributing toward the study are mostly sociologists and historians with a liberal smattering of theoretical economists. They are not imaginative futurists, cultural creatives, or social activists so the chance of them being unbiased and perhaps right makes this an important resource for anyone seriously preparing for the future.
