One way of exploring that is by thinking about how the future has been envisioned in the past, by whom, under which circumstances and with what motivations. Chronology and what the French Annales School called the <em>longue dur\u00e9e<\/em> are helpful in this respect. Think, for example, of 1851-2051: how did people move in 1851, in 1901, 1951, 2001 and will move in 2051? What criteria should we use to draw comparisons over time and across space, and in a manner that is both pertinent and rigorous?<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Carlos L\u00f3pez Galviz is an Anniversary Lecturer at the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.lancaster.ac.uk\/social-futures\/\">Institute for Social Futures<\/a>.
