An exploration of how design might be led by marginalized
communities, dismantle structural inequality, and advance
collective liberation and ecological survival. What is the
relationship between design, power, and social justice? "Design
justice" is an approach to design that is led by marginalized
communities and that aims explicitly to challenge, rather than
reproduce, structural inequalities. It has emerged from a growing
community of designers in various fields who work closely with
social movements and community-based organizations around the
world. This book explores the theory and practice of design
justice, demonstrates how universalist design principles and
practices erase certain groups of people-specifically, those who
are intersectionally disadvantaged or multiply burdened under the
matrix of domination (white supremacist heteropatriarchy, ableism,
capitalism, and settler colonialism)-and invites readers to "build
a better world, a world where many worlds fit; linked worlds of
collective liberation and ecological sustainability." Along the
way, the book documents a multitude of real-world community-led
design practices, each grounded in a particular social movement.
Design Justice goes beyond recent calls for design for good,
user-centered design, and employment diversity in the technology
and design professions; it connects design to larger struggles for
collective liberation and ecological survival.
