Will adding an artistic layer to our future exercises eventually improve them? Why? How? Will this supposed improvement contribute to the entire exercise or only to some of its aspects? Moreover, will such an improvement have long-term, stable consequences or only momentary and occasional ones? The research question I would like to unfold may then be summarized by the claim "Works of art as gates to the future." Unsurprisingly, this claim needs further qualifications, such as works of are always/often/occasionally/rarely/never gates to possible/preferable/obnoxious future. Furthermore, what does it mean to be a "gate to the future"? To make the future visible? To make the future understandable? To pave the way toward the future? This vast array of preliminary qualifications suggests that the question of the connection between works of art and the future is awfully tangled. I would be satisfied if this paper provides a frame to be eventually improved by subsequent works. Specifically, I would be happy to explain the first, basic question: why works of art may eventually improve futures exercises. I will focus primarily on Nicolai Hartmann, and secondarily on Roman Ingarden and Ernst Bloch. The conclusion I shall arrive at is that works of art can definitely improve futures exercises, because both aesthetic objects and the futures are unreal objects and presents irreducible points of indeterminateness.

Three basic acceptations of the possible are presented: the epistemological, the ontological, and the metaphysical. The latter two are presented in some details. They could be distinguished as the processual unfolding of conditions (the ontological reading) and the vision of the process as given and fully completed within each present moment (the metaphysical reading). The ontological dimension can be further distinguished into two different unfoldings of real processes: as the horizontal (temporal) accumulation of determinations and as the vertical (through strata of reality) emergence of both higher entities and higher determinations.

Anticipation is increasingly at the heart of urgent contemporary debates, from climate change to economic crisis. As societies are less confident that tradition will provide an effective guide to the future, anticipatory practices are coming to the foreground of political, organizational and personal life. Research into anticipation, however, has not kept pace with social demand for insights into these practices. The paper outlines the main contributions to the understanding of anticipation from the human and social sciences, focusing in particular on the most recent developments. ; L'anticipazione è sempre più al centro dei dibattiti contemporanei urgenti, dal cambiamento climatico alla crisi economica. Poiché le società sono meno fiduciose che la tradizione possa fornire una guida efficace per il futuro, le pratiche anticipatorie stanno venendo in primo piano nella vita politica, organizzativa e personale. La ricerca sull'anti-cipazione, tuttavia, non ha tenuto il passo con la domanda sociale di approfondimenti su queste pratiche. L'articolo delinea i principali contributi alla comprensione dell'anticipazione da parte delle scienze umane e sociali, concentrandosi in particolare sugli sviluppi più recenti.

The paper proposes to understand social time through the lens of two different multidimensional grids, one focused on the experience of time and therefore grounded in present perceptions and one focused on the interactions between the three temporal modes of past, present, and future.
