As there is not a single methodology for searching procedures, the methods contained quantitative methods like bibliometrics as well as qualitative approaches like workshops, expert interviews, internet and qualitative literature searches.

Literature was analysed. Experts were identified and interviewed in order to find the most promising topics in research and technology for the next 10 to 15 years or even further in the future.

According to the key words, literature from the Web of Science was counted on the one hand and qualitatively analysed on the other hand 9,

The (internet, literature and other) searches and first selection processes were complemented by expert interviews and informal talks to arrive at an impression of the importance and potential impact of the huge number of topics under consideration.

While methodological approaches are covered well in the academic literature, less attention has been paid to studying the use, impacts and effectiveness of scenario planning in public policy-making.

and international organisations 1. Technological forecasting & Social Change 76 (2009) 1198 1207 This article does not represent any official opinion of the European Environment Agency,

but reflects the personal opinion of the authors only. Part of the analysis presented in this paper is based on two internal reports 3. We would like to acknowledge the work of Tom Ling

& Social Change Methodological approaches to scenario planning are covered well in the academic literature. Their use and impacts in the realm of public policy is treated,

This article aims to contribute to this discussion through a review of what we call the evaluative scenario literature,

introducing a pool of 52 literature pieces that deal with one or several aspects of using scenario planning 2. This article merges the findings from this review with the results from a workshop with environmental scenario practitioners and policy-makers.

Our analysis is informed predominantly by a focus on scenario planning in environmental policy and other environmental relevant policy fields.

Process is as important as the product 7. The remainder of this article is organised as follows:

and Section 6 synthesizes implications for the future development of the evaluative scenario literature. 2. Functions of scenario planning in the policy-making process The scenario planning literature highlights a wide range of decision support functions 8,

Notwithstanding the fact that many strategic policy documents extend their validity beyond legislative cycles (take the case of national sustainable development strategies for example) a short-term,

These questions guided our review of the available literature 2 . While numerous alternative methodologies exist for future strategic planning,

we limited ourselves mainly to literature on scenario planning, because scenarios provide a potentially very attractive approach to addressing uncertainty and complexity.

Furthermore, the focus of our review was on literature that explicitly attempts to evaluate scenario planning approaches,

To identify relevant literature a number of experts were asked for suggestions. Indexes and the reference lists from these initial items were used to find relevant earlier and subsequent literature.

A narrow focus on evaluative scenario literature was kept, but the aim was to be inclusive with regard to what was included under this heading.

Nevertheless, the work included seems to provide a reasonable survey of the main themes in the literature.

when using scenario planning. 3. Synthesizing the available evaluative scenario literature 3. 1. Types of evaluative scenario studies The literature attempting to assess the impacts of scenarios employs different types of evaluative methods.

the authors examine two UK industries, water supply and IT consulting, and find that scenario use correlates with increased profit and return on capital 28.

and policy-makers the authors conclude that new approaches are necessary to increase the relevance and impact of foresight exercises 31.

however, rather slightly, confirming insights from the policy analysis literature that it is very difficult to change core belief systems in the short term.

Drawing from the private sector literature, using scenarios to address the challenges facing firms can easily fail for another reason:

which they deviate from the practice described in the case study literature. For instance, deductive approaches to scenario development are used commonly.

Much of this literature highlights the need for consensus on the scenario axes in order to foster a common basis of understanding.

The project nonetheless proceeded without consensus by producing multiple publications that treated the axes in different ways.

the authors argue, and extend the scenario building process to introduce seemingly paradoxical elements to force a sensitivity analysis on the assumptions underlying claims of inconsistency 36.

but our review did not provide the space. 3. 4. Differences between public and private sector applications Much of the literature on scenario theory

Difficulties in applying traditional scenario methods among the heterogeneous stakeholders public sector scenario exercises must engage are reported also elsewhere in the literature 17.

and extend the findings from our literature review, we organised an information exchange with thirty practitioners.

and our own literature review 2. Scenario exercises are used often as ameans of collecting and synthesizing complex information

The literature discusses the notion of scenarios often being hollow diamonds that sparkle alluringly but fail to contain real value to the decision-making process 35.

Findings presented in this article are thus necessarily preliminary. Scenario planning is geared more towards indirect forms of decision support in the early phases of the policy cycle,

The literature does not report too many differences between public and private sector applications. But scenario practitioners often confirm that the heterogeneous nature of objectives

While this need has been recognized in the literature, a more systematic debate around options for the better institutional embedding of those approaches is still largely missing 12.

where the practice and literature has been flourishing in recent years, but there will also never be a standard approach.

There are important claims in the literature about scenario's ability to affect the cognition of individuals and groups by reducing overconfidence,

publication rates and citation indices. Using foresight the focus is shifted from science-internal quality terms

and journal articles have provided lists of foresight methods and discussed them in light of, for example, technology foresight, technology forecasting and technology assessment (Martino 1983;

and lists of approaches and methood for foresight have been suggested by different authors in review articles on foresight and future-oriented technology assessment methods (Technology Futures analysis Methodsworking Group 2004).

Literature describes how foresight has changed scope since the 1960s from the first generation of technology-oriented forecasting to the current third-or fourth-generation activities that also include wider social dimensions (Reger 2001;

Some authors have suggested that foresight has emerged from the convergence of the three disciplines and practices of policy development, strategic planning and futures studies (Gavigan et al. 2001),

In this article we anticipate that the literature has refined a more view on what strategy is than on

To some extent this issue is discussed also in the strategy literature. In the 1990s Henry Mintzberg, in a book and two papers (Mintzberg 1994a c), argued that strategic planning focuses too much on analyses

The case of stakeholder image construction in a municipal vision project Stefanie Jenssen*Centre for technology, innovation and culture (TIK), University of Oslo, Norway The article addresses the theme of foresight and equality in the area of stakeholder participation

the project leadership resolved issues of stakeholder interests and futures literacy before they received their contributions.

and the scope of their contributions in visioning projects. The article contributes to discussions of inclusive foresight by showing how stakeholder image construction poses questions of power relationships in municipal long term governance.

Keywords: foresight; visioning; municipal planning; stakeholder participation Introduction Foresight is among the most widespread and accepted forms of organised future-oriented activities today. 1 As a widely applied method for dialogical future thinking,

This article focuses on the question: How did this particular image of young people as stakeholders influence their involvement and the final results of their participation in the project?

the discussion will highlight how such an image creation can influence the participatory potential of social groups up to the point where we might question the added value of their contributions.

such as scenario planning. 4 In foresight literature visioning is part of a more complex process, involving not only the creation of a desired future picture,

In the literature on municipal planning, visioning is regarded as a separate method, as a more direct process of establishing a desired vision of a communal future not necessarily based on different future scenarios. 5 This latter approach is politically crucial for public organisations trying to develop policy and long-term thinking.

'The rather scarce literature on municipal visioning has been criticised for its lack of a consistent theory or method.

As the case of a municipal visioning project discussed in this article illustrates, visioning as a form of community participation does not yet follow commonly recognised principles and processes.

Most literature today sees reflexivity as a positive value in itself, a practice to aspire to

This article is based on the collection of specific moments in which the idea of assumed shared values collided with the ideal of community engagement. 9 The following discussion of how an image of schoolchildren as stakeholders

and their contributions were considered important for how this future picture should be developed. At the same time, the municipal project leadership clarified early on how their contributions would be handled in the context of municipal planning.

The project proposal written by the municipal administrative leadership underlined the powerful position of the political representatives in the vision project:

however, shows that the collection of young people's contributions was preceded by the construction of a specific image of them as stakeholders.

i e. their contributions to the vision project. This paper argues that constructing a specific image of young people as stakeholders points towards a dilemma of inclusive foresight that cannot be rectified by specific management and process principles.

when it came to their contributions their present social status was not what the project leaders were interested in.

The municipal project organisers had to ensure that the contributions were in line with the desired outcome:

Through both image construction and the pre-processual framing of contributions, the project leaders thus ensured that the future ideas contributed by the young were well within the possible and the desirable.

while their contributions had to be framed by certain directed preconditions. Areas Pre-definitions as stakeholders Preconditions for their contributions as participants Cognitive Young people are the future Imagine yourselves as grown-ups in 2020!

Social Living their future lives in Lundal Concentrate on issues of well-being in society! Ask your parents and neighbours!

and non-reflexive The contributions would need narrative structure and other actors'input too fantastic ideas will be erased!

The project leaders might have been a bit hasty in declaring their contributions as nonreflective and unstructured. According to vision project members participating in school lessons at one college in Lundal,

the scope of their possible contributions was limited clearly through the preconditions they received from the project leadership.

The administrative and political leadership's construction of a specific stakeholder image and the preconditioning of the young people's contributions is a good example of exactly this performative way of exercising rhetoric and representative power in a municipal planning process.

This paper is a contribution to the discussion about the relationship between foresight and the democratic challenges of good governance and long-term planning.

the contribution of young people eventually mirrored existing political programmes. The final question is:‘‘How could this be different?'
