Abstract

Modern planning fully acknowledges that the future is uncertain, but rejects the assumption that human beings, organizations, and nations are at the mercy of seemingly capricious or chaotic future events. Planning is characterized by an anti-fatalistic or anti-deterministic attitude, using as its fundamental criteria the "designing desirable futures," estimating their feasibility, and then directing actions and resources to make those designs a reality.
