Abstract

Many of our futuristic thoughts and decisions about the changes and strategies to reach them are influenced by our imagination and the image of future, besides being optimistic or pessimistic about the future. These somehow suggest our imagination of the future. After outlining the topic and explaining the importance of future imaginations, the study assessed what they are in the future thinkers point of view. Then it addressed the mechanisms of making these images and explained the position of mass media in the processes that affect these mechanisms. The paper then studied the referendum on the departure of the UK from the European Union (BRC) as a case. Then it studied the role of some British mass media in interacting with the actors agree and disagree, which led to create personalized images of people from the world after the Brexit; The images of the future, which showed the departure of the UK from the European Union, in terms of voting behavior.
