    Designs for the Pluriverse

    Book by Colombian-American anthropologist Arturo Escobar originally written in Spanish

    Designs for the Pluriverse: Radical Interdependence, Autonomy, and the Making of Worlds is a 2018 book by the Colombian-American anthropologist Arturo Escobar on design theory. It is a revised English translation of the author's 2016 book Autonomía y diseño: La realización de lo comunal, which was published in Spanish with a Creative Commons license. The title of the English book refers to a pluriverse or a 'multiplicity of worlds' where different forms of life and knowing exist. It has been described both as a call-for-action book and a how-to manual. Designs for the Pluriverse is currently required reading in some development studies programs. Before the book's publication in 2018, an unpublished manuscript was shared among anthropologists and design researchers. Wikipedia
