Abstract:

Design and Ecological Citizenship examines how design education and practice might move beyond the consumer as design’s default subject by shifting attention from the consumer to the citizen as an active participant in public life. It then extends this shift towards the ecological citizen, understood through relations of responsibility and accountability within more-than-human worlds. Drawing on pedagogical experience at The Glasgow School of Art while extending beyond this institutional context, the book invites readers to reconsider how designers might be educated to respond to the ecological challenges of the present.
