Abstract
It is often said that science fiction (SF) is significant because of its ability to predict social and technological change and to bring important issues to the fore, sometimes in advance of futures studies (FS). This article explores the relationship between the two fields of activity and examines how far FS researchers use SF, and in what role. Is SF of profound importance to FS or does it detract by tainting FS with pulp image?
