Arturo Escobar presents a new vision of design theory by arguing for the creation of what he calls "autonomous design"--a design practice aimed at channeling design's world-making capacity toward ways of being and doing that are deeply attuned to justice and the Earth.

Too theoretical

Greensboro (a nearby city) is implementing a twenty year growth plan, with solicited input from citizens. Van Jones wrote a fantastic book called "The Green Collar Economy," and he was in the Obama administration. Escobar should have been referring to things of this nature, and community gardens, and so forth. It may be partly because the book is written above even my level of reading comprehension (there were several words I did not know) but on the whole I do not think so. His heart is in the right place.
