The affiliations of the core team members in the decision making bodies guaranteed the persistence of the argumentative structure in later stages of the planning process.

Instead of continuities they build on possible discontinuities to reach the solution desired and try to break the trend of business-as usual.

or research is vital for the consolidation and continuity of this approach, as otherwise the suggested application of fta to Law may run the risk of losing credibility in the eyes of policy and decision makers. 4. 2. 2 Neutrality and objectivity.
How do businesses develop successful continuity and become economically wealthy while simultaneously following their vision of the tenets of sustainable development?
Out of this continuity, intellect, in turn, constructs a world that consists of discontinuities and potential breaking points.
It thus tells us how to break the continuity and create distinctions that matter. The distinctions that our intellect generates are not arbitrary, however;
Similarly, any business has a certain momentum that will ensure its continuity for an uncertain time into the future in the absence of some new

FTA has a strong role to play in businesses achieving successful continuity through offensive and defensive activities.

thus contributing to a business's successful continuity. The sustainable development of a business depends on the integration of sustainable thinking into mainstream decision-making and core operational processes:
For most, the undeclared psychological imperative is to maintain‘successful continuity'and their independence. The secoon unspoken but implicit theme for a company is knowing that successful continuity,
measured by being able to secure future profits and a strong share price, for a limited time horizon, will be maintained through interdependence between itself and a swarm of suppliers and customers.
which are seeking successful continuity for themselves and indirectly for the network itself. What role does FTAPLAY in successful continuity

namely what may be important to do to help secure successful continuity and what to avoid doing to prevent self-destruction.
is a basic requirement for successful continuity. Foresight can also expose a range of equally likely paths into the future that may permit more insightful decisions to be made by a business.
and does contribute to a business's successful continuity. FTA cannot remove the uncertainty that surrounds its contribution to or nature of sustainable development in the wider context of its supporting network and society as a whole.

LDRD projects have a maximum duration of 3 years. Continuation proposals and an annual review are required for each existing project that has completed not its term.

but a counter hypothesis would suggest that deeply embedded institutions are equipped better to fight for survival (one thinks of the persistence of at best partially-reformed institutions from the Soviet-dominated era in some post-transition countries).
and effect and in seeking enough continuity to create the opportunity to apply lessons from previous experiences.
This was due, in part, to the longer duration of the development phase, particularly the time needed to generate support and commitment among policy-makers (and politicians).

Moreover, working laws restricted the possibilities of continuity during the holiday's period. Through the Management of Strategic Initiatives (step 5 phase 3) the institution was able to properly map the university processes
the analysis implicates that networked foresight activities are more likely to be activities with a certain degree of continuity, i e.,

The institutionalisation of FTA provides continuity and permits the accumulation of knowledge and know-how in a single organisational unit.
