Notre monde à changer! - Softcover
To explain the desperate state of our world, its functioning and malfunctioning, is the ambitious goal of this book by Ruedi and Vera Baur. To achieve this goal they have joined forces with the globalization-critical organization Attac, which has provided them with the data. The publication is a formal
homage to the sociologist Otto Neurath and the graphic designer Gerd Arntz, who created the
Isotype (International Education System by Typographical Images) in the 1920s. Ruedi and Vera Baur also recycled a figurine system originally developed for Manifesta 11, the European Biennial for Contemporary Art in Zurich. Our World to Change! not only explains figures related to economics, finance, ecology, nutrition, and immigration, but also presents suggestions and alternatives from specialists in these fields and from Attac. Visually deciphering the functions of our world system
helps to show that another world is possible and necessary.

Book Description Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. Neuware - Den desperaten Zustand unserer Welt anhand von Bildern zu erklären ist das ku¿hne Ziel dieses Buches. Um dieses Ziel zu erreichen haben sich Ruedi und Vera Baur mit der globalisierungskritischen Organisation Attac zusammengeschlossen, die ihnen umfangreiche Daten zur Verfu¿gung stellt. Formal ist die Publikation eine Hommage an den Soziologen Otto Neurath und den Grafikdesigner Gerd Arntz, die in den 1920er-Jahren das bildpädagogische System Isotype schufen. Ruedi und Vera Baur haben ein Figurensystem wiederverwendet, das urspru¿nglich fu¿r die Manifesta 11, dieEuropäische Biennale fu¿r zeitgenössische Kunst in Zu¿rich, entwickelt wurde. «Notre monde à changer!» gibt sich nicht damit zufrieden, Zahlen und Statistiken aus den Bereichen Ökonomie, Finanzen, Ökologie, Ernährung oder Immigration verständlich zu machen, sondern präsentiert Vorschläge und Alternativen von Experten und von Attac. Die visuelle Entschlu¿sselung der Mechanismen und Fehlfunktionen unseres Weltsystems hilft aufzuzeigen, dass eine Alternative möglich und nötig ist. Seller Inventory # 9783037785300
