Beyond the veil — The real value of Foresight

Technological Forecasting and Social Change, 2014, vol. 87, issue C, 274-291

Abstract: The wide application of foresight would benefit from a common assessment framework that hardly exists. This would require a higher level of reference, i.e. pursuing more generic goals. This is offered by the two concepts of “knowledge society” and “participatory governance”. The aim of the research is to develop an impact assessment framework of foresight programmes in developing more participatory “knowledge societies” beyond their specific aims.
