Critical reissue in French of an absolutely pioneering and fundamental work for the inclusion of social, environmental and sustainability issues in design approaches: the manifesto of a radical reconfiguration of the field of design , its forms but above all its mission.
Published in 1971, published in more than twenty languages, but unavailable in French since 1974, Design for the Real World is, much more than a classic in the history of design, the manifesto book of all political and ecological design. It aims for social inclusion rather than monetary profit, fights against the subjugation of needs to the market, advocates respect for the environment rather than the unlimited exploitation of nature and its resources. This critical reissue of the French translation, accompanied by essays by Alison J. Clarke and Emanuele Quinz , offers an insight into Victor Papanek's program: to entrust design with a revolutionary mission, which, today more than ever, reveals its astonishing relevance.
