Applying the Foresighting Methods in the Field of Political Science

Summary/Abstract: This article aims to draw the attention to a field that has been widely acknowledged worldwide but can be considered as rather new in Lithuania – to the methods of foresighting and future studies. Foresighting can serve as a supplement to analytic research and can be applied as a significant methodological instrument in numerous fields of political science. Authors state that foresighting is particularly relevant to the research of international relations. As actors of the international system are competing for power and attempting to formulate strategies to expand their power, foresighting and construction of future scenarios becomes an inherent part of the strategic processes. A scenario constructing process and examples are presented in the article.
