{"product_id":"9789063698805","title":"The Social Designer's Paradox : Why Social Designers Matter and Struggle in Public Organisations by Willemijn Brouwer","description":"You   want to change the world? Turns out the system isn't built for that.        The Social Designer's Paradox is a candid, compelling companion for anyone   trying to make change from within public systems.        Social designers step into government and institutions full of creativity,   care, and bold ideas-only to meet the reality of bureaucracy, politics,   outdated structures, and a whole different language. This book explores why   people who want to shake things up often struggle in systems designed to keep   things steady-and what they can do about it.        Through sharp insights, honest conversations, and a touch of humor, the   book unpacks the tensions between designing and governing. It challenges the   idea that design is just a process, and helps you express your value   clearly-without jargon, and without losing your principles.        This is not a step-by-step guide. It's a thoughtful companion for the   messy, meaningful work of making change-especially from the inside.        For designers, civil servants, rebels-in-residence, and anyone working   toward a more responsive and imaginative public sector.\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Paperback \/ softback","brand":"Gardners","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56368300654965,"sku":"9789063698805","price":26.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0612\/7193\/3106\/files\/9789063698805.jpg?v=1763549060","url":"https:\/\/backstory.london\/products\/9789063698805","provider":"Backstory","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
