dbpprop:abstract
  • Professor Thorkil Kristensen, former OECD Secretary-General, Danish Minister of Finance and member of the Club of Rome founded the Copenhagen Institute for Futures Studies (Instituttet for Fremtidsforskning) in 1970. It is Denmark's and one of Scandinavia largest Futures Studies think tank. It is a non-profit think tank and its mission was from the outset to help Danish organizations (public and private) understand and plan for the trends that are shaping their long-term future. Today it is an international think tank. The institute's research covers a wide variety of topics from identification and statistically based analysis of global trends to subjective and emotional responses to the future. The work of the Institute is interdisciplinary, and its staff covers a number of academic disciplines and professional backgrounds, including economics, political science, ethnography, psychology, engineering, public relations and sociology. The institute's products include seminars, analyses, reports, newsletters, books, and the magazine Futureorientation. Some of the institute's books include: Geuken, Thomas; Gitte Larsen (2007). All Dressed Up – but nowhere to go. Copenhagen, Denmark: Gyldendalske Boghandel. http://www. cifs. dk/alldressedup/. In Danish only. The Copenhagen Institute for Futures Studies is Danish Partner of the EUROCONSTRUCT network, which provides analysis and forecasts of construction in 19 West and Central Eastern European countries. The work at CIFS rests on the assumptions that were outlined by military strategist Herman Kahn in his book : The year 2000- A framework for speculation on the next thirty-three years” and later adopted to strategic business planning by Pierre Wack from Royal Dutch Shell.
