1.1.1: The Third Era
Examine the forces shaping the futures of governance. Other Information:
"Today, interest in designing political systems and improving governance is at an all-time high. From open data advocates
who want citizens to use public data to 'hack' civic life to development specialists engaged in improving political institutions
in 'weak' states, individuals from diverse backgrounds and with similar but distinct agendas are intensely interested in political
design." The Third Era is an examination of the forces shaping the futures of governance. A key component of VFS' political
futures work, The Third Era provides a framework for thinking about the futures of governance and suggests new approaches
for political communities to go about designing systems tailored to the challenges of the emerging global age... Political
Futures -- Political futures is one of Vision Foresight Strategy's core areas of expertise. Encompassing the futures of government,
governance, and political design, our work in this area combines a knowledge of the deep history of political systems with
a familiarity with the very broad landscape of changes currently underway.
