Produktbeschreibung
This volume documents the emergence of design anthropology, the convergence of two disciplines that has informed an emerging transdisciplinary field. Rather than a subfield of either anthropology or design, design anthropology is a unique practice and theoretical approach that explores new modes of knowledge production and enables new forms of participatory engagement.
