Disruptive seeds: a scenario approach to explore power shifts in sustainability transformations por Rutting, Lucas, Vervoort, Joost M., Mees, Heleen, Pereira, Laura, Veeger, Marieke, Muiderman, Karlijn, Mangnus, Astrid C, Winkler, Klara, Olsson, Per, Hichert, Tanja, Lane, Richard, Pergher, Bruno Bottega, Christiaens, Laura, Bansal, Nivedita, Hendriks, Abe, Driessen, Peter P.J.

“…It is a strong example of the value of mixing disciplinary perspectives to create new forms of scenario thinking—following the call for more integrated work on anticipatory governance that combines futures thinking with social and political science research into governance and power. Specifically, the questions about power shifts in transformations used in this paper to adapt the Seeds approach can also be used to adapt other future methods that similarly lack a focus on power shifts—for instance, explorative scenarios, classic back-casting approaches, and simulation gaming.…”
