Are we prepared for the 21st century? There is room for doubt. The
future seems increasingly uncertain, hard to decipher, ambiguous in
its very indeterminism, sometime frankly illegible. If it is
impossible to predict the future, one can at least help to shape
it. To respond in a timely manner to the challenges of the 21st
century, one must start by posing the right questions so as to
identify possible solutions, if any, before it is too late. This is
precisely the role of future-oriented studies and forward thinking
as represented in this volume. Originating as it does in a UNESCO
series of encounters and exchanges between scientists,
intellectuals, artists, decision-makers, and leading personalities
from public life, it offers a forum for an open debate, in the
spirit of a new ethic of discussion, on a wide range of problems,
challenges and solutions from a variety of perspectives. In short
what this volume strives to achieve is to contribute to an ethic of
the future.
