Archetypes of system transition and transformation
Current societies cannot stay the same forever in the face of the strength of global forces like climate change. The question is thus not whether to change, but how system transitions and transformational change can be stewarded towards different kinds of futures. Using a simple heuristic called Three Horizons, this paper explores the dynamics of four common archetypes of system transition and transformation: Smooth Transitions, Capture and Exten…
Three emergencies of climate change
Climate challenge brings three, not just one, emergencies. These are the visible, conceptual and existential, all of which are urgent and important. The three emergencies are starkly highlighted in Louisiana, where historical coastal development and climate-induced sea level rise is causing visible emergencies in the form of extensive land loss and increased impacts of flooding and storm surges, leading to forced relocation of settlements. The vi…
Transforming knowledge systems for life on Earth
Formalised knowledge systems, including universities and research institutes, are important for contemporary societies. They are, however, also arguably failing humanity when their impact is measured against the level of progress being made in stimulating the societal changes needed to address challenges like climate change. In this research we used a novel futures-oriented and participatory approach that asked what future envisioned knowledge sy…
Three horizons
Global environmental change requires responses that involve marked or qualitative changes in individuals, institutions, societies, and cultures. Yet, while there has been considerable effort to develop theory about such processes, there has been limited research on practices for facilitating transformative change. We present a novel pathways approach called Three Horizons that helps participants work with complex and intractable problems and unce…

Fundamentals for a New Scotland Act
That much is common knowledge. But the bill will need to take its place in a legislative programme which, over the course of a parliament, might include a number of other constitutional measures. All in all there is a heavy legislative agenda, and if Labour honours its pledge, to legislate in the first year of government, Scotland and Wales will lead the way. That gives rise to two potential problems
Policy Review Section
At the UK Political Studies Association Conference, held at the University of Glasgow on April 10–12 1996, the British Territorial Politics Group of the Association held a panel on New Labour and Devolution. Regional Studies subsequently invited panellists to submit their papers to the Policy Review Section in two parts. Part One in this section examines the Labour Party's approach to devolution in Scotland. The second part in the next edition of…
