Tiivistelmä
The article introduces the Topical Collection of articles that discusses quality
criteria of futures research or foresight from different points
of view. It is possible to characterize these perspectives using
the main categories of the quality criteria. On the one hand, quality criteria might concern (1) futures
research or foresight process (internal validity), (2) its results
(external validity of the Futures Map) or (3) the use of the
results (the use of the Futures Map). On the other hand, you
can discuss quality criteria on different levels: (a) on a basic
philosophy level, (b) on the level of pragmatic general criteria and (c) on a special context level.
