This chapter reviews the historical context of scenarios, beginning with brief sketches of early scenario activity, from its post-World War II origins up to about a decade ago. It focuses in particular on the subset of environmental global scenario projects that have a public policy and scientific orientation, since these are of greatest interest to the Millennium Ecosystem Assessment. Special consideration is given to the following post-1995 global scenario building exercises: Global Scenarios Group, Global Environment Outlook, Special Report on Emissions Scenarios, World Business Council for Sustainable Development, World Water Vision, and the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development. These scenarios, despite their diversity, are rooted in a common set of archetypal visions of the future: evolution, progression, and decline.

The root of Gk. ἔλπομαι has traditionally been analyzed as a by-form of PIE *u̯el(-)h₁-, *u̯el(-)d- and *u̯el(-)ǵʰ- with a labial extension. This paper discusses the problems that arise under the root-extension approach (such as the putative anaptyxis in Lat. volup < *u̯(o/e)l-p-i-), examines the relevant etymological dossiers (including (ἐ)έλδομαι from unrelated *h₁u̯eld-), and proposes a new solution for Arm. gełj (< *gʰéldʰ-s-o-, cf. Ved. gŕ̥tsa-). The paper seeks to rehabilitate E. Hamp's analysis of Lat. volup as reflecting a nominal compound *u̯(e)lh₁-h₁p- 'take a wish (to heart), adopt a wish'. It it is argued that Gk. ἔλπομαι can be derived from the same compound, used as a verbal neo-root, with the loss of the laryngeal by Schmidt-Hackstein's Law in athematic aorist 3 sg. *(h₁)e-u̯elh₁p-t > *(h₁)e-u̯elp-t.
