It brings together the emergent theory of 'border thinking' with innovative thinking on design, and explores the recent discourse on decoloniality and globalism. From a variety of viewpoints, the topics engaged show how design was historically embedded in the structures of colonial imposition, and how it is implicated in more contemporary settings in the extension of 'epistemological colonialism'.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe essays draw on perspectives from diverse geo-cultural and theoretical positions including architecture, design theory and history, sociology, critical theory and cultural studies. The authors are leading and emergent figures in their fields of study and practice, and the geographic scope of the chapters ranges across Europe, the Middle East, Africa, South America, Asia, and the Pacific.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn recognition of the complexity of challenges that are now determining the future security of humanity, \u003ci\u003eDesign in the Borderlands\u003c\/i\u003e aims to contribute to 'thinking futures' by adding to the increasingly significant debate between design, in the context of the history of Western modernity, and decolonial thought.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Eleni Kalantidou\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0415725186\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780415725187\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Routledge\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 05\/06\/2014\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 208\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.14lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.10h x 6.30w x 0.90d","brand":"Eleni Kalantidou","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":48064951124223,"sku":"9780415725187","price":240.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_4c44fb23-a7a5-410b-b8a1-efcc84b93377.jpg?v=1768672134","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/design-in-the-borderlands-eleni-kalantidou-9780415725187","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
