Dear Dag,
You are making such a fine point! Designers do not possess some magic set
of skills that can help to "design think" the world out of this. On the
contrary, I think that design education (there are of course many
exceptions) makes us a little bit naive by its very nature. As I have
written a couple times before, complex socio-political problems are not
design problems. you Building alliances as politically informed citizens is
the only way, and it takes time and effort.
Yours,
Ali
