Communication designers for fairness

A feminist model to activate gender de-biasing paths

In a framework still strongly marked by androcentrism, how can we equip future communication designers to challenge gender bias and propose new perspectives that diverge from the hegemonic ones? Emerging from a critical reinterpretation of the intersections between feminist theories and visual culture, this volume explores strategies, tools, and methods aimed at training gender-sensitive designers.

Design Meets Alterity

Case Studies, Project Experiences, Communication Criticism

The QUESTION OF ALTERITY has become fundamental to understanding contemporary societies, which are increasingly multicultural, multiethnic and intersectional. Today, it is legitimate to think that the design dimension can also undertake research paths that highlight THE NEED TO RECOGNISE THE OTHER: from migratory flows to gender cultures, from social fragility to mental health, from cultural distances to the difficulties of social integration, etc. This is the direction in which the essays in this volume are heading.

Rappresentazione e disparità di genere: uno sguardo sulla quotidianità

Gli studi raccolti nel volume riguardano diversi ambiti tematici, affrontati attraverso la doppia lente del design della comunicazione e degli studi di genere, che consentono di documentare alcuni territori del paesaggio mediatico critici, poiché caratterizzati da logiche progettuali che sottostanno al dominio maschile e che andiamo a osservare in profondità, al fine di rivelare i meccanismi che influiscono sulla stereotipizzazione dell’identità femminile.
