Abstract
Abstract The emergence of sociology was one response to the industrial revolution. In the 20th century, applied sociologists and social researchers have carried out important studies which have helped to shape government action. Since the 1942 Beveridge Report in the UK, students of social administration and social welfare have made a major contribution to the development of social policy. Yet after the pioneering example set by Beveridge, and with the exception of demographic forecasting, there has been a curious reluctance to engage in futures thinking.
