ZOEPOLIS. W stronę dizajnu poza paradygmatem antropocentrycznym
Journal Title: Kultura Popularna - Year 2017, Vol 2, Issue 52
Abstract
The article provides an introductory discussion on design practice that contributes to a possible constitution of an expanded community composed of humans, non-human animals and other species. It starts with an examination of existing approaches to design and art that take into consideration relationships between humans and non-humans. We divide them into three types: one, which is focused on a wildlife protection, second which reflects on an animal perspective and third, which recognizes animals as creators. Departing from a critique of given approaches we propose a new one basing on theories of Will Kymlicka and Sue Donaldson, Donna Haraway, Joanna Bednarek and Bruno Latour. Thus the concept of zoepoliscould be defined as a city and a community of living creatures. It would be based not on a hierarchy but on relations on various levels. This concept leads us to a formulation of possible questions and challenges of this expanded community for design practice where material environment could mediate between species and facilitate the cohabitation.<br/><br/>
