Esta dissertação tem por objetivo o estudo da dimensão social dentro do design
industrial. Tenciona-se compreender como o design social e os designers industriais
contemporâneos podem ser agentes transformadores, atuando responsavelmente. A
questão a ser respondida com esta investigação é a seguinte: “Como se pode caracterizar
as dimensões da responsabilidade social dos designers à luz do pensamento
contemporâneo sobre design?”
O trabalho está dividido em três capítulos. Previamente em um primeiro momento temse a introdução, com o contexto, justificativa e objetivos, assim como questão da
investigação, metodologia e a estrutura do trabalho. O primeiro capítulo contempla a
análise diacrônica sobre o design industrial, com o objetivo de averiguar quais foram os
pioneiros no que tange ao design social e os movimentos ligados ao mesmo.
Em um segundo capítulo, são abordadas correntes do Design nas quais as preocupações
sociais se tornam prevalentes, como Design Sustentável, Design Cidadão, Design para a
Inovação Social, Design Ativista, Design Emergencial, Design Crítico e a Descolonização
do Design. O terceiro capítulo é dedicado ao estudo e análise do design social e sua
dimensão na prática profissional dos designers desde um passado recente até os dias
atuais. O último momento consiste na conclusão, resultados e discussões e reflexões para
investigações futuras.

The first chapter includes a diachronic analysis of industrial design, with the aim of finding out who were the pioneers in terms of social design and the movements linked to it. In a second chapter, currents of Design in which social concerns become prevalent are addressed, such as Sustainable Design, Citizen Design, Design for Social Innovation, Activist Design, Emergency Design, Critical Design and the Decolonization of Design. The third chapter is dedicated to the study and analysis of social design and its dimension in the professional practice of designers from the recent past to the present day. The last moment consists of the conclusion, results and discussions and reflections for future investigations.
