- Futures Literacy
- Echoing Mead's (1932) Philosophy of the Present, futures literacy embodies a deep principle about the relationship between anticipation and action: all purposive action rests on some image of the future it is working toward or against; the quality of action depends on the quality of the anticipatory work underlying it; this anticipatory work can be done unreflectively (producing narrow, brittle, often-unconscious future-use) or reflectively (producing wider, more-adaptive, more-consciously-chosen future-use); the capability for reflective anticipatory use is developable through structured practice.
This sourcePragmatist account of how purposive action is constituted by its forward-oriented relation to imagined futures; supports the Abstract-Reasoning claim that all purposive action rests on an image of the future it works toward.
