Designing with Smell aims to inspire readers to actively consider
smell in their work through the inclusion of case studies from
around the world, highlighting the current use of smell in
different cutting-edge design and artistic practices. This book
provides practical guidance regarding different equipment,
techniques, stages and challenges which might be encountered as
part of this process. Throughout the text there is an emphasis on
spatial design in numerous forms and interpretations - in the
street, the studio, the theatre or exhibition space, as well as the
representation of spatial relationships with smell. Contributions,
originate across different geographical areas, academic disciplines
and professions. This is crucial reading for students, academics
and practitioners working in olfactory design.
A groundbreaking feminist perspective on Movimiento al Socialismo
(MAS) rule in Bolivia and the country’s radical transformation
under Evo Morales  The presidency of Evo Morales in Bolivia
(2006–2019) has produced considerable academic scholarship, much
of it focused on Indigenous social movements or extractivism, and
often triumphalist about the successes of Morales’s Movimiento al
Socialismo (MAS). Turning a new lens on the movement, Cash,
Clothes, and Construction presents the first gender-based analysis
of “pluri-economy,” a central pillar of Bolivia’s program
under Morales, evaluating the potential of this vision of “an
economy where all economies fit” to embrace feminist critiques of
capitalism and economic diversity.  Based on more
than twelve years of empirical research exploring the remarkable
transformations in Bolivia since 2006, this book focuses on three
sectors—finance, clothing, and construction—in which Indigenous
women have defied gendered expectations. Kate Maclean presents
detailed case studies of women selling second-hand high street
clothes from the United States in the vast, peri-urban markets of
Bolivian cities; Aymaran designers of new pollera (traditional
Andean dress) fashions, one of whom exhibited her collection in New
York City; and the powerful and rich chola paceña whose real
estate investments have transformed the cultural maps of La Paz and
El Alto.  Cash, Clothes, and Construction offers a
gendered analysis of the mission of MAS to dismantle neoliberalism
and decolonize politics and economy from the perspective of the
Indigenous women who have radically transformed Bolivia’s economy
from the ground up.
