Through a close study of a Berlin-based innovation agency, Tim Seitz finds both mundane knowledge practices and promises of transformation. He unpacks the relationships between these discourses and practices and undertakes an exploratory movement that leads him from practice theory to pragmatism. In the course of this movement, Seitz makes design thinking understandable as a phenomenon of what Boltanski and Chiapello described as the "new spirit of capitalism"--that is, an ideological structure that incorporates criticism and therefore strengthens capitalism. </p><p></p><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br><p></p><p>Tim Seitz is a doctoral researcher in the DFG research training group "Innovation Society Today" at the Technical University of Berlin, Germany. His research interests include sociological theory, science and technology studies and ethnographic methods.</p><p></p>
