| book description |
Comparing design policies in Finland and China, this book explores how their distinct cultural and technological contexts shape innovation, sustainable development, and social well-being. Bridging theory and practice, the book offers a clear framework for evaluating the effectiveness of design policies and provides a forward-looking perspective on the future of design policy, including opportunities in sustainability, digital transformation, and global–local collaboration. By analysing key initiatives such as Finland’s “Design 2005!†and the subsequent “Design Finland Programme†(2013), alongside China’s “Made in China 2025,†the book demonstrates how design policies influence national innovation systems, economic strategies, and governance. In doing so, it explores Finland’s leadership in socially responsible design and China’s rapid technological advancements, while also addressing challenges such as regional inequalities and the need to balance cultural creativity with technological progress. With its comparative perspective and actionable insights, The Design Policy Nexus in Finland and China will be of interest to policymakers, academics, and practitioners seeking to understand how design policy can be leveraged to foster economic growth and address global challenges.
