Das Design mischt sich inzwischen in alle gesellschaftlichen Zusammenhänge ein und wird deshalb sowohl von politischer Macht als auch von deren Kritik intensiv genutzt. Beide Funktionen werden in diesem Buch präzise und ausführlich dargestellt – einschließlich deren unausweichlicher Verknüpfung. Autorinnen und Autoren aus verschiedenen Ländern stellen bislang nicht bekannte und innovative Beispiele demokratischer Aktivitäten durch das Design dar. Diese Publikation richtet sich deshalb nicht nur an Fachleute des Designs, sondern auch an ein allgemeines Publikum in allen Ländern. Autoren: Tom Bieling, Friedrich von Borries, Eray Çaylı, Carl DiSalvo, Michael Erlhoff, Saskia Hebert, Wolfgang Jonas, Ramia Mazé, Amanda Meng, Agustin Pereyra Decara, Laura Popplow, Maziar Rezai, The 27e Région, Andreas Unteidig. Design affects all social contexts and is therefore intensively instrumentalized both by the politically powerful and their critics. Both functions of design, and their inevitable combination, are presented in this book in precise detail. Authors from various countries present previously unknown and innovative examples of democratic activities conducted through design. This publication is therefore aimed not only at design professionals but also at the general public of all countries.
