"This book constitutes the first joint experience of the scholars who authored the concepts of Strategizing (V.L. Kvint) and Noonomy (S.D. Bodrunov). The idea of combining the authors' perspectives on issues of general civilizational development has a common scientific platform, i.e., the identification of long-term goals and the selection of economic and strategic tools for achieving these goals. This publication reflects the co-authors' assessments and perspectives on the global trends transforming society in the modern era, on strategic priorities and public development goals driven by these trends, and the strategic paths achieving national interests. In "A Word to the Reader," the authors explain methodological premises that serve as the foundation for their joint study. For example, the approach realized in the concept of Noonomy allows for discerning very remote horizons of public development and perceiving transitions from one development stage to another. But a vision of the future does not hold value in and of itself. It acquires public significance when it becomes a tool-a technology which allows for using this knowledge. Methods of strategizing serve this very purpose-they convert knowledge about the future into an instrument for development process management. The concept of noonomy is a perfect fit for the strategic approach for it incorporates foresight on future events that are obscure from the perspective of common sense, as well as the ability to look far beyond the bounds of the current agenda. A strategy should not rely on vox populi or on rather predictable future elements. Inertial progress that is reliant on the extension of currently implemented scenarios is quite possible without special efforts in development strategizing. A real strategy should take us down an obscure path into a still uncharted future"--
