Diallo_4357, Guinea
Legal frameworks often fail during societal collapse. In a 2028 post-collapse Germany, this project explores the informal legal systems Syrian refugees developed after the formal system disintegrated. Through meticulously drawn maps, diagrams, and accompanying text, the project showcases refugees’ resilience and adaptation, raising troubling questions about the longevity of legal structures in times of crisis and humanity's enduring capacity for self-governance.
2028 Germany is a fractured landscape. Societal systems have collapsed, leaving former Syrian refugees vulnerable and marginalized. Amidst resource scarcity and social unrest, communities are forged in the crucible of shared hardship. Innovative solutions for resource allocation and conflict resolution emerge, driven by necessity and a deep-seated desire for self-governance. A complex social tapestry weaves together resilience, vulnerability, and the enduring power of the human spirit to adapt.
Examine this project to understand how societal collapse impacts marginalized communities. Consider the fragility of current legal systems in the face of future crises. Ask yourself: how would our existing legal frameworks fare under pressure, and what alternative systems might arise from the ruins?
Diallo's exploration of cartography and human psychology, subtly rooted in West African storytelling traditions, provides a unique lens. Her cultural influences emphasize collective responsibility and communal solutions, mirrored in the refugees’ informal legal adaptations. Beginning with comprehensive research into legal frameworks and refugee psychology, Diallo then constructs narrative maps and diagrams detailing the evolution of these informal systems, reflecting her meticulous desk-based process.
