The ethnographic futures research method: An application to Thailand

Robert B. Textor

Abstract Ethnographic Futures Research (EFR) is a method invented in 1976 which futures researchers employing a sociocultural approach can use with a sample of interviewees to elicit their perceptions and preferences among possible and probable alternative futures for their society and culture. EFR is an adaptation of the spirit and method of cultural anthropology and ethnography to the needs and constraints of futures research.

Cultural futures for thailand: An ethnographic enquiry

Robert B. Textor

Abstract The author outlines an ethnographic and cultural approach developed during a study of Thailands future-a study which necessitated different approaches from those commonly used in futures research in dealing with the developed world. The study was based on interviews with Thais currently living in California and shows widespread agreement among the interviewees, particularly on the possibility of large-scale violence in Thailand in the 1980s.
