Fashion Forward
Fashion Forward is the eponymous zine and brainchild of the New York City-based non-profit think tank, Fashion Forward. The zine brings together global researchers, artists, and advocates who explore culture, society, technology, and sustainability through the lens of fashion. We are here to show that fashion, heavily stigmatized in academia and beyond for being superficial and frivolous, can in fact be a vehicle for creativity, personal growth, community, innovation, and more.

Historical Perspectives on Sustainable Fashion
"Historical Perspectives on Sustainable Fashion in Fashion reminds us that concerns about workers' rights and chemical pollution in the fashion industry have been with us as far back as the early 19th century. By placing today's sustainable fashion movement in its historical context, this book encourages contemporary designers to learn from past failures and build on their predecessors' successes to move the business of fashion forward. As well as new international examples from each stage of the fashion production cycle, this revised edition includes a new opening chapter outlining the different fashion systems and their role in sustainable practice. There's also a new chapter on how the consumer can play a role in the environmental impact of their clothing, exploring the importance of emotional significance and value, shopping and e-commerce as well as laundering and care"--
Fashion Forward Visegrad: Sustainable Fashion in the Czech Republic, Hungary, Poland, and Slovakia
Sustainable fashion has gained immense traction in the past decade. While American and Western European initiatives are often credited with being the pioneers of this relatively new segment of the industry, it is important to note that they are not the only ones asking the tough questions, and providing innovative answers on the topic. Eastern Central Europe is full of educators, activists, programs and initiatives that are actively addressing and working with sustainable fashion, yet lack a unified platform on which to collaborate and advance their goals. A cumulative platform was warranted to showcase the diversity of ideas the Visegrad (V4) region has to offer. Based on a 3-day conference...

Think Tank Aesthetics
How the approaches and methods of think tanks—including systems theory, operational research, and cybernetics—paved the way for a peculiar genre of midcentury modernism. In Think Tank Aesthetics, Pamela Lee traces the complex encounters between Cold War think tanks and the art of that era. Lee shows how the approaches and methods of think tanks—including systems theory, operations research, and cybernetics—paved the way for a peculiar genre of midcentury modernism and set the terms for contemporary neoliberalism. Lee casts these shadowy institutions as sites of radical creativity and interdisciplinary practice in the service of defense strategy. Describing the distinctive aesthetics ...
Forward Engagement: Rsis As A Think Tank Of International Studies And Security In The Asia-pacific
In many ways, the S. Rajaratnam School of International Studies (RSIS) is a microcosm of the Singapore brand of government. The DNA of Singapore's policymaking is its forward-looking nature. S. Rajaratnam's trademark is taking the long view while Lee Kuan Yew articulated his wish for leadership foresight and the admiration for 'helicopter quality' candidates in policymaking. This was how RSIS' mission began under the stewardship of the late President S. R. Nathan. RSIS began (as IDSS — i.e., the Institute of Defence and Strategic Studies) in 1996 as a form of policymakers' clairvoyant on security matters. To date, it is Singapore's 'frontline' think tank on Asia-Pacific security, counter-t...
