New paper: Baltic herring for food - Shades of grey in how backcasting recommendations work across exploratory scenarios

A new paper from Mia Pihlajamäki and Simo Sarkki on combining exploratory and backcasting scenarios to study how Baltic herring can be used more as food in the future

A new paper titled Baltic herring for food: Shades of grey in how backcasting recommendations work across exploratory scenarios has been published in the journal Technological Forecasting & Social Change.

In this paper ,Sarkki and Pihlajamäki have proposed advancements to scenario literature by theorizing the question how normative recommendations work across exploratory scenarios using Baltic herring as an empirical case. The results point to the need to simultaneously analyse multiple exploratory scenarios; set of normative recommendations instead of single recommendation; implications of multiple drivers on single recommendations; implications of recommendations for multiple stakeholders; and synergies and trade-offs between recommendations
