Abstract:
We need better predictive intelligence analysis. This statement has driven
pundits and practitioners to find better ways to provide anticipative knowledge about
future vulnerabilities, threats, and risks, but also about windows of opportunity to
promote one countrie’s national interests.
In this collective effort, futurists have managed to make a difference proposing
vision, solutions, methods, and products in order to facilitate the making of better
intelligence analysis.
But futures studies are not easy to study and futurists are not always right. They
come with different names, different methodologies, complex argumentation and
multiple plausible alternatives for better decision making processes. Either way, they
provide a framework for creatively and proactively exploring the possibilities and
working toward a safer future.
Keywords: intelligence, analysis, future, predictive, decision.
