- Summary:
- This volume offers a new approach to creating outlooks that consider the interconnectedness of three key drivers - economic growth, energy abundance, and geopolitics. Using the quantitative assist of the International Futures Model results in eight quite different scenarios to 2050. In each, a change in any one driver affects the outcome of the other two, and combinations of the three drivers interact to create varying outcomes. The book offers scholars the chance to create their own futures using the model.
