Sometimes these projects generate unprecedented solutions; sometimes they converge on common goals and realize larger transformations. As Ezio Manzini describes in this book, we are witnessing a wave of social innovations as these changes unfold—an expansive open co-design process in which new solutions are suggested and new meanings are created.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eManzini distinguishes between \u003ci\u003ediffuse design\u003c\/i\u003e (performed by everybody) and \u003ci\u003eexpert design \u003c\/i\u003e(performed by those who have been trained as designers) and describes how they interact. He maps what design experts can do to trigger and support meaningful social changes, focusing on emerging forms of collaboration. These range from community-supported agriculture in China to digital platforms for medical care in Canada; from interactive storytelling in India to collaborative housing in Milan. These cases illustrate how expert designers can support these collaborations—making their existence more probable, their practice easier, their diffusion and their convergence in larger projects more effective. Manzini draws the first comprehensive picture of design for social innovation: the most dynamic field of action for both expert and nonexpert designers in the coming decades.Series Foreword vii\u003cbr\u003eAcknowledgments xiii\u003cbr\u003eIntroduction 1\u003cbr\u003e1 Innovation, toward a New Civilization 9\u003cbr\u003eSocial Innovation 9\u003cbr\u003eDistributed and resilient systems 17\u003cbr\u003eMultiple sustainable qualities 22\u003cbr\u003eAn emerging civilization? 25\u003cbr\u003e2 Design in a Connected World 29\u003cbr\u003eConventions and design 29\u003cbr\u003eProblem solving and sense making 33\u003cbr\u003eDiffuse and expert design 37\u003cbr\u003eDesign mode map 40\u003cbr\u003eEmerging design cultures 43\u003cbr\u003eSocial innovation \u003ci\u003ein \u003c\/i\u003edesign 47\u003cbr\u003eDesign, a new description 53\u003cbr\u003e3 Design for Social Innovation 55\u003cbr\u003eWhat is is 55\u003cbr\u003eWhat it is not 63\u003cbr\u003eHow it works 67\u003cbr\u003eA new design knowledge 71\u003cbr\u003ePart 2 Collaborative People\u003cbr\u003e4 Collaborative Organizations 77\u003cbr\u003eNew social forms 77\u003cbr\u003eCollaborating by choice 83\u003cbr\u003eEnabiling ecosystems 90\u003cbr\u003e5 Collaborative Encounters 93\u003cbr\u003eDimensions of collaborative encounters 93\u003cbr\u003eMapping collaborative encounters 105\u003cbr\u003eCollaborative encounters, in practice 110\u003cbr\u003ePart 3 Making Things Happen\u003cbr\u003e6 Making Things Visible and Tangible 121\u003cbr\u003eMapping and amplifying 121\u003cbr\u003eCreating stories 125\u003cbr\u003eScenario building 129\u003cbr\u003eVisual Tools for Social Conversations (12 Visual Examples) 133\u003cbr\u003eCredits 147\u003cbr\u003e7 Making Things Possible and Probable 151\u003cbr\u003eSupportive environments 151\u003cbr\u003eNetworked governance 157\u003cbr\u003ePlaces for experiments 161\u003cbr\u003e8 Making Things Effective and Meaningful 165\u003cbr\u003eProblem Solving 165\u003cbr\u003eSense making 170\u003cbr\u003eTrust building 173\u003cbr\u003e9 Making Things Replicable and Connected 177\u003cbr\u003eSmall, local, open, connected 177\u003cbr\u003eReplicating as scaling out 180\u003cbr\u003eConnecting as scaling up 185\u003cbr\u003e10 Making Things Local and Open 189\u003cbr\u003ePlace making 189\u003cbr\u003ePlaces and resilience 191\u003cbr\u003ePlanning by projects 195\u003cbr\u003eCosmopolitan Localism 202\u003cbr\u003eDesign for a New Culture 203\u003cbr\u003eNotes 205\u003cbr\u003eIndex 235Ezio Manzini, a leading thinker in design for sustainability, founded DESIS, an international network on design for social innovation and sustainability (http:\/\/www.desis-network.org).
