Our membership is made up of futurists of all types;

entrepreneurs, executives, forecasters, economists,

scientists, students, parents, and conscious citizens. We are

united by our shared desire to tackle the world’s biggest

challenges. 40

As perhaps not surprising given its 1960s’ inception,

WFS is less a directed-research resource than it is an

initiation into the hobby & habit of “futurism”:

contemplating and pursuing one’s life with “the future”

accented. It’s a bit like visiting Disneyland and spending

the day in Tomorrowland.

WFS publications don’t emphasize alerts and alarms,

bur rather on general environments in a “world citizen

lifestyle” context. While not deliberately ignoring or

concealing unpleasant information, its tone is clearly

positive, constructive, and optimistic.

For its first several years WFS had two levels of

individual affiliation: “regular” and “academic”. The latter

was indeed for professionals interested in detailed,

directed research. During my graduate studies I found it

invaluable, and in those pre-Internet days of the 1970s,

both versatile and responsive.

Today there are more-expensive WFS individual

memberships, but they appear to principally provide

more preferential amenities at WFS events.
