Politics of Design

Re-Framing the Politics of Design is a research, exhibition and book project exploring the role of designers in collaboratively giving shape to future changes addressing complex challenges such as climate change, mobility and migration. By looking at concrete, situated case studies, this book explores the current need for designers to re-frame their political agency, engaging with the deep relationality connecting us all, humans (and not only those who already have a voice in society and are represented) but also more-than-human actors. Contributors are Andy Weir, Barbara Roosen, Bart Van Gassen, Ben Hagenaars, Bert Villa, Ciel Grommen, Els Vervloesem, Hannelore Goyens, Jan Schreurs, Jenny Stieglitz, Judith Seng, Julie Marin, Luigi Coppola, Mela Zuljevic, Roel De Ridder and Sarah Martens.
