The chapters in this captivating volume demonstrate the importance
and power of design and the ubiquitous and forceful effects it has
on human life within the study of anthropology. The scholars
explore the interactions between anthropology and design through a
cross-disciplinary approach, and while their approaches vary in how
they specifically consider design, they are all centered around the
design-and-anthropology relationship. The chapters look at
anthropology for design, in which anthropological methods and
concepts are mobilized in the design process; anthropology of
design, in which design is positioned as an object of ethnographic
inquiry and critique; and design for anthropology, in which
anthropologists borrow concepts and practices from design to
enhance traditional ethnographic forms. Collectively, the chapters
argue that bringing design and anthropology together can transform
both fields in more than one way and that to tease out the
implications of using design to reimagine ethnography--and of using
ethnography to reimagine design--we need to consider the historical
specificity of their entanglements.
