Resolving Problems
in the World through
Design
“There is the capitalist approach
(make it bigger), the technocratic one
(make it better), the ‘revolutionary’
solution (portray the problem as an
example of an exploitative system)
and the pre-industrial romantic fallacy
(don’t use it; maybe it will go away by
itself.) We propose a fifth alternative
response: Let’s invent a different
answer” (27).
