What could a political thaw between Iran and Saudi Arabia mean for how we understand the Middle East? Could Turkey leave NATO in the near future? What would happen if security-related EU databases were successfully hacked; if South Korea were to arm itself with nuclear weapons; or if an American woman were to head the United Nations? In an effort to prepare for the unexpected, the articles in this publication examine what could happen if these scenarios were to become a reality. Two essays also review the accuracy of prediction pieces written in 2013 on the UK’s possible withdrawal from the EU as well as the battery revolution in power supplies.
