Description

This book explores the relationship between design and institutional design education with colonial and capitalist world orders, questioning their pseudo-neutral stance. The authors reflect on what it means to teach and practice design today, gradually developing ideas about design as a mechanism for maintaining existing structures and about teaching as a way of resisting bureaucratic inertia.

How does design give shape to social myths?
How does the professionalization of design education support the interests of nations and capital?

The book covers pedagogical approaches that express anger, generosity, forgiveness, slowness, and chaos. Through lectures, essays, and interviews, the authors reflect on the burden of existence, the possibilities, and the impossibility of breaking with the colonial legacy and its support.

The collection presents texts by such authors as:
Uzma Z. Rizvi, Ahmed Ansari, Kelly Walters, Hayfaa Chalabi, Maya Ober, Lauren Williams, Elaine Lopez, Danielle Aubert, Silvio Lorusso, and John Jennings.
