CLA: An evolving methodology in a learning community

The Integral framework should not be welded onto CLA. Rather, the relationship between Wilber's and Inayatullah's work should be considered liminal, open and complex. Indeed, CLA stands up independently as a core theory and methodology in Futures Studies, and is growing within a learning community. Using the vinculum approach, methods can be bolted to each other temporarily, on a case-by-case basis. This allows and indeed supports epistemological pluralism.
