Abstract

Scenarios enable a better understanding of complex contexts and are helpful to identify both threats and chances– be it for regional, national or international challenges and businesses, respectively. The scenarios presented in this book are intended to demonstrate the flexibility and usefulness of the method with regard to complex contexts and objectives within the fields of security, privacy and mobility research. Working as a catalyst, scenarios are not only products of a working process, but also facilitate internal and external communication. Participants involved in a scenario process acquire new knowledge and gain insights into different perspectives on a topic. This initiates the development of new strategies or an improved handling of sensitive issues.
