| We analyze the shortcomings of epistemological approaches to prediction which are oriented at the paradigmatic case of classical mechanics which appears as a more or less singular stroke of luck in the history of science. Then we discuss the role of quantitative models in foresight studies. After a short overview on the four main approaches to foresight according to Kreibich we proceed with a discussion of qualitative concepts compared to quantitative concepts in science and conclude with some approaches which bridge the gap between the two traditions. |
