Abstract

Decolonization has become a major theme in design practice and research, and the spate of scholarship produced under different terms―‘decolonizing design(s)’, ‘decolonial design’, ‘respectful design’, ‘pluriversal design’, to name a few―signal a significant turn in the field, that deals with addressing historical and entrenched various forms and relations of Anglo-European domination. This issue brings articles that take a critical look at the state of decolonial discourse and praxis in the field, highlighting its many challenges and tensions, as well as opening up new queries and questions for readers to consider: around research and pedagogical practice; around relations between the local and global; and around the status of professional design as part of the apparatus of present institutional power.
