The development of the discipline of Anticipation

The UNESCO chair in Anticipatory Systems deals with three clusters of research projects: “The Discipline of Anticipation”, "Projects", and “Field Applications”. 

A few topics characterizing the Discipline of Anticipation: Understanding and classifying anticipation, including biological, psychological and social types of anticipation; The theory of anticipatory systems; Complexity (from the point of view of anticipation); Futures Literacy; Reframing, or the structure of imagination; Anticipatory Capability Profile; Resilience Profile; Anticipatory methods, including the development of suitable protocols; Anticipation and values - Ethical aspects of anticipation; Philosophical aspects of the theory of anticipation.

"The main purpose of the UNESCO Chair in Anticipatory Systems is to centralize the study of anticipation and to define the Discipline of Anticipation as a cohesive body of knowledge."   see Project Anticipation

Modelling for Global Systems Science

"Models in GSS are used as a map of the world, or a specific piece of it, and can be used to address complex problems faced by society and policy makers. More conventional methods, economics for example, also use models but these models tend to be more specifically focussed on one specific area and exclude much relevant information. This can lead to unintended consequences, and when a policy relies on such a model it may actually end up causing more harm then good. GSS seeks to avoid this by using models that are more comprehensive and look at more external factors that may influence a system. Essentially, this means that GSS is using a larger map that not only looks at the path ahead, but also which paths are dead ends or might get you lost." more

ne tikai CV

Pastāv viedoklis, ka pēc rakstura iezīmēm cilvēku tipi var būt: militāristi, ierēdņi, biznesmeņi, mākslinieki. To ir vērts zināt, ņemt vērā, domājot par savu un citu izglītību, profesiju, izvēlēm un, protams, personības attīstīšanu, veiksmi un laimi darbā un ģimenē. Mēs varam un maināmies, bet daudz kas paliek...
