The 2008 nomination period includes the last calendar quarter of 2007 and then all of calendar 2008, with the winners announced in early 2009.
In 2007, Peter Schwartz’s The Art of the Long View was the top vote-getter in the balloting. For this first activity, members voted for books in the recent past as well as “classics.” They had 10 votes, either choosing from a list of 20 nominated by the “Most Important Futures Works team, or writing in up to five personal choices. Starting in 2008, we are looking for nominations for just the current year. These may go beyond books to include futures works in other media as well. The team was led by Ken Harris, and consisted of Andy Hines, Amy Oberg, Cindy Frewen Wuellner, Gitte Larsen, and Oliver Markley.
