Description

The Politics of Design A (Not So) Global Design Manual for Visual Communication by Ruben Pater explores the importance of visual literacy in communicating beyond borders and cultures. This collection of visual examples from around the world uses ideas from anthropology and sociology to create surprising and educational insight into contemporary visual communication. Through a range of examples, including typography, images, colour, symbols, and information, Politics of Design shows how cultural meaning behind everyday visual elements can impact their effectiveness in design and communication. A practical guide for design and communication professionals and students, this book offers valuable insights to create more effective and responsible visual communication. By examining the cultural context of visual elements, designers can avoid stereotyping and promote mutual understanding between people. This book provides a unique perspective on the role of design in global communication, making it an essential resource for anyone working in the field.
