AbstractHistoryArchive Description

'There is no singular future out there waiting for us. The future is a contested and creative space in which individuals, communities and even civilisations explore the creative possibilities available to them in their traditions, their imaginaries and their choices. This provocation outlines some key drivers in the area of climate change, marginalisation and vulnerability. It does not seek to offer a coherent ‘narrative’ but rather to challenge the reader to think about the current global conditions under the banner of the new term ‘anthropocene’ and consider where resilience is to be found in our complex and uncertain world.'  (Publication abstract)

    'This special issue is interested in the language possibilities inherent to this reframing and proposes that there are multiple languages or frames through which we can envisage and understand possible futures. It presents expert knowledge alongside creative expression to stimulate a range of dialogical possibilities that expert and creative expression, on their own, cannot achieve. We, the editors, argue that any engagement with our present, in the light of the future, calls upon an anticipatory aesthetic (Bussey 2017a, 2017b) in which the imagination is a key producer of foresight, hope and a range of possibilities.' (Marcus Bussey, Lisa Chandler, Gary Crew, and Rachel Robertson : Introduction)
