The concept of nostophobia (Davis, 1979) is less frequently used. It is a potentially useful flip side to nostalgia: an assessment of the past as essentially negative, and of the future as an opportunity to rectify its limitations. Thus, following earlier writers, we see the concept as 'useful in analysing the way organisational members reverse the positive/negative temporal division and see the past as an era to be escaped from, and the new, more positive one, actively embraced' (Strangleman, 1999, p. 727–728).
