Summary/Abstract: We need better predictive intelligence analysis. This statement has driven pundits and practitioners to find better ways to provide anticipative knowledge about future vulnerabilities, threats, and risks, but also about windows of opportunity to promote one countries’ national interests. In this collective effort, futurists have managed to make a difference proposing vision, solutions, methods, and products in order to facilitate the making of better intelligence analysis. But futures studies are not easy to study and futurists are not always right. They come with different names, different methodologies, complex argumentation and multiple plausible alternatives for better decision making processes. Either way, they provide a framework for creatively and proactively exploring the possibilities and working toward a safer future
