Description
Nowadays private, public, and professional life is marked by an omnipresence of modern technologies. A large share of these technologies is developed through the specific implementation of particular design practices and through innovation projects: two activities that are indispensable for modern companies that wish to stay competitive. At the same time, these are phenomena that are quite difficult to grasp, especially because they are highly subjective and emotional. Nevertheless, their impact on society is constantly growing. One only needs to look at the UX-design of social media platforms and their underlying algorithms to see the political dimension of technologies. They shape users’ affects, impact individuals’ identity constructions, and reorganize communication. This book proposes a critical perspective on design and innovation, and their societal implications.
