Synopsis

Design, Displacement, Migration: Spatial and Material Histories gathers a collection of scholarly and creative voices--spanning design, art, and architectural history; design studies; curation; poetry; activism; and social sciences--to interrogate the intersections of design and displacement.

The contributors foreground objects, spaces, visual, and material practices and consider design's role in the empire, the state, and various colonizing regimes in controlling the mass movement of people, things, and ideas across borders, as well as in social acts that resist forced mobility and immobility, or enact new possibilities. By consciously surfacing echoes, rhymes, and dissonances among varied histories, this volume highlights local specificity while also accounting for the vectors of displacement and design across borders and histories. Design, Displacement, Migration: Spatial and Material Histories shows displacement to be a lens for understanding space and materiality and vice versa, particularly within the context of modernity and colonialism.

This book will be of interest to scholars working in design history, design studies, architectural history, art history, urban studies, and migration studies.
