The passive dimension of empathy and its relevance for design
Empathy has become an essential concept for coarticulating design's creative efficacy and allocentricity. While subject to many definitions, a common methodological interest has tended to cast empathy as a tool, used deliberately and reflectively. The result has been an emphasis on the intentional, reflective, and interpretively rich dimensions of empathy over their automatic and inchoate foundations. Uncovering the “passive” dimension of empathy helps put empathy's role in design in a new perspective. It illuminates the role of empathy in the most basic tasks of design and differentiates the contributions of empathy from those of reflective and imaginative techniques. Taking passivity into account can consequently mediate disputes about the role of empathy in design and guide methodological choices in design projects.
期刊介绍:
Design Studies is a leading international academic journal focused on developing understanding of design processes. It studies design activity across all domains of application, including engineering and product design, architectural and urban design, computer artefacts and systems design. It therefore provides an interdisciplinary forum for the analysis, development and discussion of fundamental aspects of design activity, from cognition and methodology to values and philosophy.
Design Studies publishes work that is concerned with the process of designing, and is relevant to a broad audience of researchers, teachers and practitioners. We welcome original, scientific and scholarly research papers reporting studies concerned with the process of designing in all its many fields, or furthering the development and application of new knowledge relating to design process. Papers should be written to be intelligible and pertinent to a wide range of readership across different design domains. To be relevant for this journal, a paper has to offer something that gives new insight into or knowledge about the design process, or assists new development of the processes of designing.
