However, the future doesn’t have to look like this. It is possible to perceive a future in which the social contribution a person makes is valued equally, or as an alternative, to economic value.
In other words, a society where social value is central, and economic value peripheral. This diploma explores the idea of social value as a key metric for measuring worth. Through design fiction, social design and critical theory, this diploma offers a contribution on how to answer the problem of our finance-focused current paradigm, by means of a portal into the Social Impact Paradigm. It is the constructed paradigm used in this diploma, not too far from our current state - the only thing that has shifted is the way we perceive value.
From this paradigm I will present a visualization of the solution, presented as five unique artifacts, making the Social Impact Paradigm plausible, believable and comprehensible.
