Future Education: Prospective for sustainability and social justice

In a context of uncertainty, future studies have been extended to different transversal areas including communication and education. Both, media and education have a great influence on the way citizens imagine the future. Future Education, as a line of research, arose in the United Kingdom and in other Anglo-Saxon countries in order to analyse the language, the narratives or the negative images of the future reported by different media, and how these images influenced democratic participation and attitude towards social change. In this special issue, we contribute to the analysis and discussion of theoretical and practical aspects related to Future Studies and Future Education, and their impact on all aspects of educommunication.
