Saturday Radical Culture: Scapegoat Journal

designwontsavetheworld thumb Saturday Radical Culture: Scapegoat Journal

Scapegoat is a new biannual journal covering design and political economy, among other subjects. From the editors:

“As a mytheme, the figure of the scapegoat carries the burden of the city and its sins. Walking in exile, the scapegoat was once freed from the constraints of civilization. Today, with no land left unmapped, and with processes of urbanization central to political economic struggles, SCAPEGOAT is exiled within the reality of global capital. The journal examines the relationship between capitalism and the built environment, confronting the coercive and violent organization of space, the exploitation of labour and resources, and the unequal distribution of environmental risks and benefits. Throughout our investigation of design and its promises, we return to the politics of making as a politics to be constructed.”
