| Abstract | This dissertation examines the politics of design practice in urban India through an ethnography of a Delhi-based design and innovation studio. The dissertation focuses on the ideological continuities between the profession of design and middle class Indian citizenship post-liberalization, twinning arts of governance through the shaping of the material world with self-actualization for an avant garde, modernizing elite. I show how this social order is organized and operates through the interactional organization of the design studio, through the use of film in design research, through the staging of a hackathon to evangelize entrepreneurial technology making, and in a conference evangelizing design as a form of citizenship that can generate global Indian modernity. This project has implications for understanding the ways in which technology practices are socially and culturally productive--not only as processes that generate artifacts and systems with social implications, but as processes that themselves have social implications.
