Alternate Timelines

Scenarios about 'alternative development'

The study of how societies, technologies, or historical processes might have evolved differently given altered circumstances or decision points. Alternative development explores counterfactual scenarios where different economic models, technological innovations, or social structures emerged in response to historical contingencies. This approach helps historians and futurists understand path dependency, historical causation, and the complex interplay between human agency and structural factors in shaping development trajectories.
