{"product_id":"9781517907006","title":"Design, Nature, and Revolution : Toward a Critical Ecology","description":"\u003cp\u003eArgentinean designer and intellectual Toms̀ Maldonado taught  environmental design at Polytechnic University of Milan. In this   collection of essays, he advocates reform of the designed environment  to tackle ecological problems. Drawing on ideas from sociology,   philosophy, politics, and ecology, he considers design as a force to  counter technocracy and alienation. He critiques the   techno-utopianism of Buckminster Fuller and questions the  architecture of capitalism promoted by Robert Venturi and Scott   Brown. The book will be of interest to design scholars, especially  leftist design scholars. It was first published in Italian as La   Speranza Progettuale in 1970, by Giulio Einaudi editore s.p.a.,   Turin, Italy.
