This book explores the evolution of two disciplines, design and
anthropology, and their convergence within commercial and
organizational arenas. Focusing on the transdisciplinary field of
design anthropology, the chapters cover the global forces and
conditions that facilitated its emergence, the people that have
contributed to its development and those who are likely to shape
its future. Christine Miller touches on the invention and diffusion
of new practices, the recontextualization of ethnographic inquiry
within design and innovations in applications of anthropological
theory and methodology. She considers how encounters between
anthropology and 'designerly' practice have impacted the evolution
of both disciplines. The book provides students, scholars and
practitioners with valuable insight into the movement to formalize
the nascent field of design anthropology and how the relationship
between the two fields might develop in the future given the
dynamic global forces that continue to impact them both.
