Extract

Boehm and Spitze approach the assigned topic from quite different perspectives. Boehm's principal point of departure is his belief that the policy-making process has now changed to one of crisis reaction. That is, if a problem is not at the crisis stage, it is not acted on. From this premise, he moves on to identify several potential crises that he thinks will develop over the next several years.
