| Summary |
Rasmus Rasmussen (2015) views the foresight approach as a methodology for strategic local and social development, based on input from local, regional, and national actors through a structural dialogue. The approach provides a basis for action with a focus on the potential to increase living conditions in a case study area, as indicated through analysis of qualitative data, e.g., gathered via workshops. This dataset is derived from a Northern Swedish research project that applied a light version of the foresight approach to study social resilience, which Neil Adger (2000, in his abstract on p. 347) describes as "the ability of groups or communities to cope with external stresses and disturbances as a result of social, political and environmental change." External stresses are here mainly developments in the global economy, which both mean that local jobs are lost but also that there is potential to attract lifestyle migrants escaping the rat race in densely populated European areas. The dataset files are accompanied by a Teaching Guide and a Student Guide |
