Reimagining Expertise, Design, and Societal Structures

The chapter delves into the limitations of expert knowledge and modernist ontology in dealing with complex issues such as pandemic management and societal structures. It critiques the dichotomy between expert-driven interventions and the need for a more holistic, relational approach towards design and policy-making. The conversation explores the influence of expert discourse in society, the concept of expertise, the evolution of design as a fundamental aspect of cultures, and critiques the narrow focus in urban design discussions.
