Abstract
Integrated Assessment (IA) has been a rapidly evolving field during the last decade. This does not imply that Integrated Assessment is something new. In an earlier publication2, we argued that the Egyptian farmers in pre-Christian times were already performing integrated assessments. For decades, scientists have been working with decision-makers to address local and regional problems, especially in the field of environmental policy, though it was not necessarily called “Integrated Assessment”. It is only recently that Integrated Assessment has been recognised as a profession in its own right and as a specific branch of scientific research. The current state can be considered as the culmination of a multi-decade process that involved both the changing nature of the issues on the societal agenda as well as the evolution of the ways these issues have been analysed by scientists and managed by decision-makers3.
This Chapter builds upon reviewed and published papers in which the author was involved, esp. (Rotmans and van Asselt 1996; 1999; 2000 (inpress); Rotmans et al. 1997; Rotmans and Dowlatabadi 1998; Rotmans 1998a, 1998b; Pahl-Wostl et al. 1998)
