Theory base of futures studies
John, Gary G, and friends. I have a paper under revision on the unique role of middle range analysis to develop theory in strategic foresight-- ie. how leaders, organizations and collectivities engage the future. I presented on this at WFS 2007, arguing that a research PhD in futures should focus on theory building and theory testing; beyond just applied research. This takes some rigor in quantitative (multivariate data analysis) and at times, some robust capacity in qualitative, depending on the stage of the theory. We need better theory in futures, interlocking with theory from various disciplines. We have philosophy, framework and methods but are missing the 2nd rung up on the ladder--theory. So in our discussions, let's talk about what kind of PhD --Jay Gary, http://www.regent.edu/global
