"Futures of a Complex World” conference 2017
was a success by all standards. We got record amount of participants - 330
experts from 29 countries - with fascinating array of topics from future of
agriculture to new modeling tools. This publication, based on papers presented
in the conference, is a token of the fascinating variety of approaches we can
adopt while penetrating the future with the tools of our research. As such, it
also represents in a splendid way the complexity of our world, embedded with
grand challenges as well as fascinating new developments. Complexity science
itself proves us that we need particularly two capacities to thrive in the ever
more complex world: on the one hand we need to build more resilience into our
systems, on the other, we should create new capacities to transform, if
necessary. Both aspects are well represented in the articles of this
publications.
