Etymology

The term 'futurist' originated from the early 20th century, primarily associated with the Futurism movement that began in Italy in 1909. The movement was spearheaded by artists and writers who were enthusiastic about modern technology, speed, and the potential transformation of society. As the movement evolved, the term began to encompass individuals who studied and theorized about future possibilities beyond art and literature. By the mid-20th century, 'futurist' became more widely used in the context of social sciences, emphasizing predictions and analyses of potential future scenarios based on current trends. Influential futurists, such as Alvin Toffler and Buckminster Fuller, helped solidify the term in academic and practical discussions surrounding forecasts for society's evolution in response to technological and social changes.
