1. What is a path dependency?
1. What is a path dependency?☜Paths are possible development trajectories of a system. A path dependency means that going down one path makes it more difficult to switch to another path. Path dependency narrows down the viable options and creates lock-in effects which make it more difficult to change paths. Past decisions add up to foreclose some options and make others more likely to be taken. ☜FFB597

2. How is a path determined?
2. How is a path determined?☜A path emerges through a series of decisions that are made over time and it gradually narrows down the set of available future options. All dimensions (technology, economics, politics, culture and discourse) play a role in determining a path. The specific interplay and relative importance of the various factors depends on the particular case. ☜FFB597

3. Why are path dependencies important?
3. Why are path dependencies important?☜Path dependencies create lock-in effects which can be a problem in light of unforeseen future developments that require a different path to be taken. Decisions made today can have long-lasting (and sometimes unintended) consequences for the future.At the same time it needs to be noted that path dependencies are not necessarily negative. Lock-in effects create certainty which allows people to plan better. A society where multiple paths are constantly open can be unstable. ☜FFB597
