Design-Driven Conflicts: A Design-Oriented Methodology for Mindset and Paradigm Shifts in Human Social Systems

Transformability is one of the essential attributes social systems. To improve transformability, should create preconditions for strategic intervention on underlying structures. This paper proposes a design-driven conflict (DDC) methodology in response to limitation systemic design approach by aggregating network allies paradigmatic shifts. The proposed has more implications. It starts with unfolding actors and shared resources (phase context mapping). continues defining power relations between them, drivers, spillovers that cause conflicts disagreements two analysis). After this, it shows how can synthesize commonalities core narratives form boundary objects three synthesis). By using existing as inputs translation phase, DDC creates construction. Next, uses method, relation four moments ‘sociology translation’, problematization, interessement, enrolment, mobilization, order gradually change learning paradigm system. In scaling-up phase five), ways creating narrative platform, shedding light mobilize results from community level onto broader scale. framework been evaluated based method content analysis group experts diverse backgrounds disciplines. show, except efficiency which requires additional investigation real-life context, efficacy effectiveness have elaborated sufficient way.
