論文の詳細を見る
The report reviews the further progress made by the so-called Y3K group at the 12th Biennial Fuschl Conversation, 18^<th>-23^<rd> April 2004. The report covers further reflection of issues explored in 2000 and 2002 to enable new members to engage with the Y3K metaphor for a design process towards a better future for humankind. New expertise from complexity theory and artificial intelligence was shown to be useful for introducing new concepts for consideration including, interacting local agents as a basis for emergence at multi-levels and thus to global change. Educational systems are shown to be a key consideration for Y3K, both in the sense of developing critical thinking and in fostering design literacy. Simulations, aimed at helping groups to recognize the value of others, namely with others with whom they are normally in conflict, are introduced as possibilities for further investigation. The report raises fundamental dilemmas: that we cannot design for future generations, and any design suggestions or ideas we offer must remain very open-ended. This applies to the issue of progress, and what it means for a future situation to be "better".
