[IxDA Discuss] Are interaction designers an elite class?

[John Monberg]

The analysis of what counts as a class has a very long history in 
social and political theory.  Alan Liu, who is both a humanities 
professor and self-professed technogeek--he helped to create Voice of 
the Shuttle, an early and wonderful clearinghouse for humanities 
information on the web-- presents one of the most thoughtful analysis 
of class formation that is specific to the field of design in his 
ironically titled book, "Laws of Cool."
