Other design histories in Brazil: counter-hegemonic perspectives
Abstract
The proposal of this dossier is in line with the strands that defend design as a social practice widely committed to the material and symbolic configuration of everyday life. It is about understanding design as a cultural phenomenon that operates in the production of behaviors and meanings through the objectification of values whose effects are crossed by power relations, having implications for the constitution of individual and collective identities. We argue, then, that design does not only concern a professional and institutionalized activity, but encompasses numerous practices engaged in the transformation of the social world.
