What will government of the future look like at the local, regional, state, national, and international levels?
A panel of practitioners at various levels of government will participate in an open dialogue with the audience on the potential futures of government. What will be the role of the individual in all levels of government? How will the current layering of local, regional, state/provincial, national governments look in the future? What services are likely to remain with government at some level, versus those that will be nongovernmental? In the global neighborhood, how will governmental jurisdiction be determined? During fragile economic times, how will government be sustained fiscally?
This session promises to be a freewheeling discussion in which the government practitioners will set the table for the audience to feast on. By the conclusion of the session, the dialogue will yield some interesting trend analysis and forecasts about the future of governance.
