Sammendrag
This report synthesises the results of a workshop on explorative scenarios for the
global social, economic, technological and political development from 2020 to
2050. The 19 participants included national and international researchers and
experts in the transdisciplinary Forum of the project – see
http://www.ssb.no/en/forskning/energi-og-miljookonomi/klimapolitikk-ogokonomi/smart-paths-smart-paths-and-costly-detours-towards-a-sustainable-lowemission-society. The work resulted in a handful of alternative, internally
consistent, qualitative scenarios for the forthcoming global social, economic,
technological, and political development. These will serve as a starting point for
the numerical scenarios to be generated and analysed in the project SMART PATHS
(Research Council of Norway #268200). Thanks to workshop participants for this
work being possible and for valuable input to this report. We also appreciate the
comments on earlier drafts from Kristine Grimsrud and Cathrine Hagem and are
grateful for research grants from the Research Council of Norway (Klimaforsk #268200).
