Transformation Info - Driving Forces
-- a university of arizona course on methods and approaches for studying the future

Generally 5-7 driving forces are identified to understand the "pressures of change". Each driving force is made up of a cluster of individual trends. For example, population is a driving force, but it includes components such as actual growth rate for each country or geographic area as well as the world, distribution of poverty and wealth, and indicators that relate to "per capita" analysis. See Driving Forces - General Examples.
