The History of Contingency and Future-Oriented Thought
Moynihan, Thomas (Cambridge University)
Description
The future is contingent. It can unfold differently, hinging on chance or choice. This Element tells the story of how these twin concepts have developed across human history. It demonstrates how humans realised the future is an undecided, contingent place at scales leading beyond the biographical, up to the planetary, and beyond.
