In the face of seemingly escalating global crises and profound existential questions about the future of our planet, LA+ takes a moment to reflect upon the values and consequences of speculation. How do different disciplinary frameworks and broader cultural perceptions interpret speculative acts? Whether used as a tool of influence, a means of production, a form of practice, an approach to inquiry, a way of seeing, or a guiding ideology, LA+ Speculation explores the multifaceted nature of speculation and its potential to shape the world.

This special issue, guest edited by Christopher Marcinkoski and Javier Arpa Fernandez, features a diverse range of contributors who delve into the complexities of speculation. Among them are Merve Bedir, Casey Lance Brown, Stuart Candy, Paul Dobraszyk, Aroussiak Gabrielian, Daisy Ginsberg, Adrian Hawker, Souhei Imamu, Karen Lewis, Min Kyung Lee, Mpho Matsipa, Alexandra Sankova, Jonah Susskind, and Ytasha Womak.

Through their insightful contributions, these authors examine the diverse roles that speculation plays in our lives, from influencing decision-making processes to shaping artistic expressions. They explore the ethical considerations and potential risks associated with speculation, as well as its potential to foster creativity, innovation, and social change.

LA+ Speculation serves as a platform for critical dialogue and reflection, inviting readers to engage with the world of speculation from various perspectives. It encourages us to think beyond the boundaries of traditional thinking and to consider the transformative power of speculation in shaping our collective future.

As we navigate the complex and uncertain terrain of our globalized world, it is more important than ever to engage in thoughtful and rigorous exploration of the values and implications of speculation. By doing so, we can better understand the potential for positive change and the risks associated with unchecked speculation.

In conclusion, LA+ Speculation offers a valuable contribution to the ongoing discourse on speculation and its role in shaping our world. By exploring the diverse perspectives of contributors and engaging in critical reflection, we can gain a deeper understanding of the complexities and implications of this powerful concept.
