The future of policymaking --- I am a boundary spanner thanks to my scientific education and my job as diplomat. But I consider this term will diseppear since all policy makers will have to include science in their desition making processeces. It is true than ideologies still predominate, but is also clear that not considering science is a weakness and undermine credibility of policies so I think (I hope) soon every policy maker will be a boundary spanner
