The dialectic of utopian images of the future within the idea of progress
Communicating overshoot and collapse
Purpose The purpose of this paper is to look at the communications strategy of the wake up call suggested by Slaughter and to explore alternatives and other perspectives on its transmissions and receptions. Design/methodology/approach This review uses a topical literature survey and synthesis method to critique conventional vs integral‐type communications strategies and suggests alternatives. Findings Communications are tricky. The alignment of t…
Defending the future
Purpose The purpose of this paper is to give an introductory overview of the special issue of On the Horizon ( OTH ) on responses to the author's book, The Biggest Wake‐up Call in History ( BWCH ). Design/methodology/approach The author does not comment on all the contributions to this special issue, but summarises his view of some of the most valuable suggestions for further work that have been put forward. Findings The author's view is that, ov…
Structural criminality within the “collective shadow”
Purpose The purpose of this paper is to expand upon one theme in Richard Slaughter's The Biggest Wake Up Call in History ( BWCH) – that of the “collective shadow.” Design/methodology/approach Along with Slaughter, the author contends that the denialism indicative of strong negative reactions to the publication of Limits to Growth since 1972 is part of a larger problem within the collective psyche that must be understood and confronted. Findings F…
Framing and reframing the emerging “planetary crisis”
Purpose The purpose of this paper is to take up and contribute to understanding an important emerging theme in recent literature on global environmental change and socio‐ecological issues (including Slaughter's The Biggest Wake‐up Call in History): “positive reframing”. The paper also aims to deepen consideration of the potential for “overshoot and collapse” futures and related concerns by foresight practitioners. Design/methodology/approach The …
Shifting values
Purpose The purpose of this paper is to take up the challenge of Slaughter's Biggest Wake‐up Call in History to look for solution in the interior aspects of the Integral perspective by focusing on long‐term patterns of changing values in individual interior (the upper‐left “intentional” quadrant of the Integral matrix). Design/methodology/approach The paper applies the author's research on long‐term patterns in individual values changes. It takes…
Energy, complexity and interior development in civilisational renewal
Purpose Slaughter has proposed futures in which interior human development matches that of technological development as the best prospect for avoiding catastrophic collapse through overshoot of the Earth's carrying capacity. The purpose of this paper is to highlight the importance of the primary energy resource context in making sense of the prospects for such futures, and to consider how subtle changes to conceptual models for understanding the …
Migration and the false promise of growth
Purpose The purpose of this paper is to analyse interaction between the economic growth and population explosion on migration and impending global crises, resulting from a congruence of the ills affecting the world today, including climate change, water and food scarcity, poverty and environmental degradation. Design/methodology/approach This is a comparative analysis of future‐oriented literature. The paper applies the “Limits to Growth” thinkin…
Waking up in the twenty‐first century
Purpose The purpose of this paper is to explore metaphors of human awakening in four recent futures works and propose a research agenda on the nature and future trajectories of awakening. Design/methodology/approach The paper reviews metaphors of awakening in Slaughter's The Biggest Wake‐up Call in History , the Great Transition Initiative, Gilding's The Great Disruption and Inayatullah's “Waking up to a new future”. It identifies seven character…
Towards an integral futures vision
Purpose There are many challenges to be addressed in today's world. Futurists have a process, methods and skills to submit to a positive advancement of these challenges, which is the purpose of this paper. Design/methodology/approach The approach is the author's synthesis and reflection of the more positive aspects of addressing the problems facing contemporary society. Findings The author concludes the visioning operation needs to be near the be…
