Diseño y agencia El entrecruzamiento crítico entre la antropología y la pedagogía del diseño

Abstract

This article is based on the research work and teaching practice carried out in the undergraduate program in Design at UAM Cuajimalpa. In this sense, the research questions are: how can design be taught through agentive social processes that allow opening lines of research for the practice of design conceived as a social discipline? And particularly, how can such processes accompany the teaching practice of design when dealing with social problems? The proposal consists of arguing about the capacity of activating agencies to understand the social dynamics in which both design processes and design teaching are inserted. All this, exemplified with the didactic processes of the Terminal Project Laboratory in the degree in Design at UAM Cuajimalpa, during the year 2020, which theme was Food Sovereignty in the context of the SARS-COV-2 Pandemic.
