    Per questo primo doppio numero della rivista, Social Design. Design e "bene comune", curato da Marinella Ferrara, Francesco E. Guida, Mario Piazza, Paola Proverbio e Raimonda Riccini, quasi come una sfida, si è provato a rompere l’ortodossia di un approccio lineare alla storia. In questo orientamento, che tende a portare più vicino a noi i temi storici, il Social Design si offre in modo calzante per il suo essere questione contemporanea e complessa, ampia e ambigua financo controversa, anche solo dal punto di vista delle diverse espressioni sinonimiche con cui si presenta: design etico, design umanitario, design per la collettività, design di pubblica utilità, design per l’utenza ampliata, design per la sostenibilità, ... Il numero ha ricevuto la Menzione d'Onore alla XXVII edizione del Compasso d'Oro (giugno 2022), ed è stato segnalato nell'ADI Design Index 2021 (promosso da ADI, Associazione per il Disegno Industriale) nella sezione "Ricerca teorica, storica, critica e progetti editoriali"

    Geografie relazionali nella storia del design

    Con il tema delle “geografie relazionali” l'intenzione di questo numero è di valorizzare studi e ricerche che assumono approcci tipici delle scienze sociali per la comprensione e la spiegazione del design. Questo, infatti, oltre ad essere fatto di “cose”, strutture materializzate (come la nazione o la comunità), individui e meccanismi, è composto soprattutto di reti e fatti sociali: un insieme intricato e complesso di intersecazioni, rete di flussi e di relazioni..

    Background: During the first coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic wave, an unprecedented number of patients with respiratory failure due to a new, highly contagious virus needed hospitalization and intensive care unit (ICU) admission. The aim of the present study was to describe the communication and visiting policies of Italian intensive care units (ICUs) during the first COVID-19 pandemic wave and national lockdown and compare these data with prepandemic conditions. Methods: A national web-based survey was conducted among 290 Italian hospitals. Each ICU (active between February 24 and May 31, 2020) was encouraged to complete an individual questionnaire inquiring the hospital/ICU structure/organization, communication/visiting habits and the role of clinical psychology prior to, and during the first COVID-19 pandemic wave. Results: Two hundred and nine ICUs from 154 hospitals (53% of the contacted hospitals) completed the survey (202 adult and 7 pediatric ICUs). Among adult ICUs, 60% were dedicated to COVID-19 patients, 21% were dedicated to patients without COVID-19 and 19% were dedicated to both categories (Mixed). A total of 11,102 adult patients were admitted to the participating ICUs during the study period and only approximately 6% of patients received at least one visit. Communication with family members was guaranteed daily through an increased use of electronic devices and was preferentially addressed to the same family member. Compared to the prepandemic period, clinical psychologists supported physicians more often regarding communication with family members. Fewer patients received at least one visit from family members in COVID and mixed-ICUs than in non-COVID ICUs, l (0 [0–6]%, 0 [0–4]% and 11 [2–25]%, respectively, p < 0.001). Habits of pediatric ICUs were less affected by the pandemic. Conclusions: Visiting policies of Italian ICUs dedicated to adult patients were markedly altered during the first COVID-19 wave. Remote communication was widely adopted as a surrogate for family meetings. New strategies to favor a family-centered approach during the current and future pandemics are warranted
