Abstract: The views presented here are a rough sketch of certain features it the trajectory of Indonesia's evolution between now and a generation hence, towards the end of the century. This paper deals with some fundamental problems and identifies key issues in the problem area; under review. It indicates the significant variables which bear on the likely course of events. It includes a normative element in the sense that we do not wish to remain passive objects of whatever forces and trends may appear as "imminent" on the horizon. These should on the contrary move us to influence them so as to foster the growth and progress of our society under conditions of social stability and justice. However, normative desiderata must be based on a realistic comprehension of the present and the recent past. Perspectives of the future, even as more glimpses, help us to envisage some of its requirements as preconditions for a bearable human existence. They provide the needed additional dimensions to the context within which we must take action now or in the immediate term to ensure that future requirements can be met
