How do designers navigate the ethical discursive territories of design thinking and practice when the same common terms they consistently use across the different design ethics paradigms—like fair, right, good—convey different meanings? Delving into the dynamic and adaptable nature of ethical language and terminology in design, The Adaptive Nature of Design Ethics Discourse argues that it is intrinsically flexible—what can be described as chameleonic. Engaging in a meta-ethical investigation, this book elucidates the interconnections of key terms of design ethics discourse and explores the way in which different frameworks of design ethics both diverge and intersect. The book challenges existing perspectives on ethical discourse in design by highlighting the complexities of such discourse and the tensions that emerge when universal language encounters various ethical views. By shedding light on these tensions, The Adaptive Nature of Design Ethics Discourse provides alternative ways to apprehend the ethical sense of responsibility of designers as well as a foundation for rethinking the discursive fabric of design ethics practice. This pivotal work is intended for researchers, educators, students, and practitioners across all design disciplines, including, among others, architecture, engineering, product design, systems design, and urban planning.

This book explores the contemporary memory of the Ottoman conquest of Constantinople (now Istanbul) in 1453. It focuses on how the conquest is remembered by Islamist-nationalist imagination in Turkey today and how architecture plays a role in shaping this memory, underscoring its susceptibility to political manipulation. Discussing Islamist-nationalist rhetoric of Istanbul’s conquest through the conceptual framework of melancholy—a significant theme in the history of ideas—the argument posits that this narrative is a politically driven endeavor fueled by paranoia, producing melancholy over the conquest of Istanbul. This book redefines melancholy as ‘a politically manipulated project’, which anchors the imagery of conquest to spatial and architectural symbols of mourning while creating imaginary lost objects. Architecture becomes the book’s subject as the bearer of clues to searching for lost objects and as a spatial-political tool of conquest rhetoric, such as the Hagia Sophia in Istanbul and the Panorama 1453 History Museum. As various groups with differing ideologies and identities continue to feel the impact of the conquest, this book also examines the ‘other’ side of the event—specifically, how the Greeks commemorate the fall of Constantinople, recognizing it as a dark memory from their perspective. This book targets diverse audiences in cultural studies, social sciences, arts, and humanities—including architecture, history, anthropology, and political studies—interested in Southeast Europe and Islamic societies.
