Abstract

Business and Management global financial crisis alternative futures causal layered analysis futures studies narratives
In this paper using causal layered analysis, the underlying stories of the global financial crisis (gfc) are explored. The seven narratives presented are the GFC as: 1) a mortgage crisis, 2) a global banking crisis, 3) as part of the natural creative destruction cycle of the capitalist system, 4) a geopolitical shift from the USA to Chindia, 5) part of God's plan, 6) a symptom of the inequity of the world capitalist system, and 7) a window of opportunity to a transformed greener partnership world. From analysis, the essay moves to five scenarios of the futures of the world system. These are: 1) business as usual, 2) the rise of «Chindia», 3) the quick and long road to sustainability, 4) the end game of capitalism, and 5) a new era.
