An Atlas of Agendas: Mapping the Power, Mapping the Commons - Hardcover

Inhaltsangabe

Back in print, the acclaimed compendium diagramming global power structures

Panoramic in scope and conceptually both profound and accessible, this acclaimed volume is an atlas for an emancipatory new model of citizenship, from the local to the global.
For the last several years, the artist-duo Bureau d'études—comprising Paris-based artists Léonore Bonaccini and Xavier Fourt—has been producing maps of contemporary political, social and economic systems through various infographics. These maps aim to inform, reposition and empower readers. Revealing what normally remains invisible, often in the shape of oversized banners, and contextualizing apparently unconnected elements within new frameworks, these visualizations of interests and relations rearticulate the dominant symbolic order in legible terms. The book contains alternative and rigorously researched information relevant to information designers, activists, community workers and anyone interested in topics such as the commons and data mining.
