Research Questions

This article is part of my Master’s Thesis - Future Imaginaries. Previous Chapter: 1.2 Approach


  • Which approaches to the description of collective future imaginaries exist in futures studies and sociology as well as anthropology?
  • Which comparable approaches to Future Imaginaries already exist, and what can be learned from them for the theoretical approach to Future Imaginaries?
  • How can the understanding of the future from futures studies and the concept of imaginaries from sociology and anthropology be brought together to form a concept of future imaginaries?
  • Where do Future Imaginaries situate themselves in relation to existing terms and concepts that also deal with ideas and expectations of the future in society?
  • What could be starting points for developing methodological concepts to identify and investigate Future Imaginaries?
