Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych (dostawa przed świętami) Design as Politics confronts the inadequacy of contemporary politics to deal with unsustainability. Current "solutions" to unsustainability are analysed as utterly insufficient for dealing with the problems but, further than this, the book questions the very ability of democracy to deliver a sustainable future. Design as Politics argues that finding solutions to this problem, of which climate change is only one part, demands original and radical thinking. Rather than reverting to failed political ideologies, the book proposes a post-democratic politics. In this, design...

Simulating the Marvellous: Psychology - Surrealism - Postmodernism
ISBN: 9780719088827 / Angielski / Twarda / 424 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych (dostawa przed świętami) This book presents important new research on Surrealism and the culture from which it arose. It offers a fresh interpretation of Surrealist art and literature based around the theme of simulation. As the book shows, in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, simulation arose in a number of discrete contexts, in relation to hysteria and war neuroses, but more broadly it shadows the emergence of our concept of 'the unconscious'.
Acknowledging simulation's relevance to Surrealism, this book argues, radically alters our understanding of their project and the terms in which one...

Parallel to our large retrospective of the designer of the century, Marcel Breuer, for this issue we have sought out objects that may at first sight appear banal, but which permit the analysis of utopia and amancipatory effect, of fetish and consumer behaviour--from teespoon to cactus, from price tag to mirror, from casing to timetable. This issue endeavours to...
