Abstract

Purpose

This paper aims to introduce movements in scenario methodology, to design a moving strategic foresight approach.

Design/methodology/approach

The authors firstly question the limits of plausibility from an ontological and epistemological perspective to expand scenarios beyond the boundaries of end-states. To incorporate ongoing changes in scenario methodology, the authors propose to explore scenario transformations within the conceptual framework of action-based scenarios.

Findings

The authors discuss consequences of playing strategies within ongoing scenarios, as well as the research directions about moving scales, stakeholders’ dominance and time issues.

Originality/value

The paper proposes a method to distort and transform scenarios. The authors suggest supplementing strategic foresight in iterative processes to challenge the boundaries of plausible futures, bridging the gap between theoretical ever-changing processes and the moving rhythms of actions.

Abstract

Purpose

The purpose of this paper is to examine what role the contract can, or should, have to frame sustainable futures.

Design/methodology/approach

Theoretical discussion, implementation of action‐based scenarios method.

Findings

In a sustainable perspective, function and dysfunction of contracts relate to irreversibility to be designed as transfer, stalemate, oscillation and phase lag.

Research limitations/implications

Contracts appear as the product of a rational decision, settling the interactions between contracting parties, as well as being a symbolic act.

Originality/value

The paper discusses contracts in a long range perspective through the implementation of action‐based scenarios method.
