Book excerpt: This book argues that 'futures studies' has abandoned its goal of exploring diverse and alternative futures. Its over-emphasis on forecasting and prediction, its over-preoccupation with technology and its neglect of non-western cultures and concerns have all transformed it into an instrument for the colonisation of the future.
