Afonso Matos examines the tension between the academic encouragement of critical design practice and the socioeconomic realities faced by graduates entering the workforce. Through a multi-contributor format, the book investigates how class, labor, and financial constraints limit the ability to maintain ethical or political stances. It shifts the discourse from idealistic professional aspirations toward the necessity of addressing designers' own working conditions as a foundation for collective action.
