Anyway: do others who have studied the history of futurism, elite common sense, innovation, etc. have different impressions about futurism’s track record? And, anybody want to do a PhD thesis examining futurism’s track record? Or on some piece of it, ala this or this or this? :)
What kind of PhD program would you do this in? I’m guessing econ, just because broadness.

History :).
Some kind of humanities, I guess. History, sociology...
I too think it would be economics, though probably of a more philosophical type, like what they do at the London School of Economics.
And yes, I’d be very interested in doing something like that :)
