It is important for almost all organizations and societies to have an idea of the future. States, corporations, universities, cities, non -governmental organizations believe that they should not miss the future. But what is the future? It is a mystery, possibly the greatest mystery, since it remains unpredictable, uncertain and often unknowable. The future is rarely simple extrapolation from the present.
In this book, John Urry considers numerous attempts to anticipate, visualize and specify the future: from the methods used to model the future by state and international organizations and corporations, to imaginary future worlds in philosophy, literature, art, cinema, television and computer games . He also shows that the analysis of social institutions, practices and life should be determined for considering a possible future and issues related to the one to whom it belongs
