What is Design and Futures about?
"As Nobel Laureate Herbert Simon famously observed: 'Everyone designs who devises courses of action aimed at changing existing situations into preferred ones.'

This mutual recognition is reaching critical mass as each comes to appreciate how their respective traditions have much to offer to making urgent change in the world, and even more so, together." – From the Editors' Introduction DESIGN AND FUTURES is a landmark collection of essays, manifestos and peer-reviewed articles, edited by Stuart Candy (Carnegie Mellon University) and Cher Potter (Victoria and Albert Museum), documenting 'design futures' discourse and practice around the world. Originally appearing in back-to-back issues of the open access Journal of Futures Studies (Tamkang University Press, Taiwan), the present compilation preserves the original formatting while unifying all 30 pieces between covers for the first time.
