Dear Colleagues,
One of my fellows Julia Wertheim is working on the problem of
relation between social prognostics and historical theorizing.
I recommended her to study first the destiny of past social prognoses
(as far as I know they were done since mid-XIX, since 1920-s rather,
and since 1960-s very actively). But here in Russia there is almost
no literature on this topic.
We would be very grateful for references on English-language papers
and/or books with systematic analysis, comparing with real
facts, statistics, and evaluation of past social prognoses(as well as
technical, economic, scientific, political, demographical,
ecological, cultural, etc.).
Thank you
Nikolai Rozov
