Abstract: Most futures bibliographies tend to overemphasize US sources, since the USA has tended to dominate the field for some time. The largest futures organization (the World Future Society) is based there. There are more futures institutes, researchers, scholars, consultants, SF writers and so on working in the USA than in most other countries combined. Those wishing to access the resulting literature will find the monthly Future Survey or the Future Survey Annual invaluable. However, a great deal of good work is produced in other places. Hence, for this special issue, it was decided to look further afield. The following references have been written by Kjell Dahle, Satish Seth, Tony Stevenson, Wendy Schultz and Graham May from Norway, India, Australia, Hawaii and the UK, respectively. The result is certainly not comprehensive, but it provides a clear indication that the field of futures study and research is alive and well in many places around the world. In time, and perhaps with the help of UNESCO, there will be a more universal guide to futures literature from this wider, global arena. (Rick Slaughter).
