This book seeks to evaluate the design choices we might make in order to invent, redirect, or repair our existing material and digital cultures, infrastructures, and landscapes towards a post carbon future.
As the impetus to build post-carbon futures becomes an ever more urgent driver of politics, culture and innovation, Designing the Just Transition evaluates the design choices we might make in order to invent, redirect, or repair our existing material and digital cultures, infrastructures, and landscapes.

Starting from the acknowledgement that much of the history of design has failed to address sustainability and the climate crisis, this book elaborates new pathways and possibilities for designing a more environmentally and socially just future - any transition to which will have to be materialized and built, coded and created, imagined and enacted.

Through an engagement with histories of sustainable, ecological, anti-racist, feminist, and labor-friendly traditions of design, Designing the Just Transition posits possible new modes to which the discipline can propel and embody new social and political imaginaries.

Damian White is Professor of Social Theory and Environmental Studies and Dean of Liberal Arts at the Rhode Island School of Design, USA. White has published four books to date in the fields of environmental design studies including Bookchin: A Critical Appraisal (2008), and Autonomy, Solidarity, Possibility: The Colin Ward Reader (2011). Nicholas Pevzner is an Assistant Professor in the Department of Landscape Architecture and Regional Planning at the University of Pennsylvania’s Stuart Weitzman School of Design, and a Faculty Fellow at the Kleinman Center for Energy Policy at Penn, USA
