Current 'solutions' to unsustainability are analysed as utterly insufficient for dealing with the problems but, further than this, the book questions the very ability of democracy to deliver a sustainable future. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eDesign as Politics \u003c\/i\u003eargues that finding solutions to this problem, of which climate change is only one part, demands original and radical thinking. Rather than reverting to failed political ideologies, the book proposes a post-democratic politics.
