Abstract
When highlighting the needs of the future and the present, sustainable development concepts often neglect how these needs are born: that is, by the relationship between future and present generations. This special issue contributes to this discussion with linking papers on futures generations in different interpretations and dimensions; these are emerging generations of turures theories and organisations, youth surveys, education and views of news generations in non-Western societies.
