Description:Is another future possible? So called late modernity is marked by the escalating rise in and proliferation of uncertainties and unforeseen events brought about by the interplay between and patterning of social natural, techno scientific and political-economic developments.

Exploring questions of speculation, possibilities and futures in contemporary societies, Speculative Research responds to the pressing need to not only critically account for the role of calculative logics and rationalities in managing societal futures, but to develop alternative approaches and sensibilities that take futures seriously as possibilities and that demand new habits and practices of attention, invention, and experimentation."We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
