Theo Deutinger

Deutinger's Handbook of Tyranny (Lars Müller Publishers, 2018)[7] documents how the architecture of refugee camps, prisons, slaughter houses and migration control systems are used to control animals and people.[8][7] It details how architectural features used to prevent human migration, suicide, terrorism, and illicit drug injection.[7]

Aaron Betsky described the "deeply ironic beauty" of the book, which he also calls terrifying and notes how "ingenious we have become at harming others through both architecture".[7] The book won the Festival international du livre d'art et du film book award for architecture in 2018.[9]

Ultimate Atlas: Logbook of Spaceship Earth is a 2019[10] book that contains data visualisations of global politics.[11] Wojciech Czaja and Maik Novotny called it "radically abstract" and "beautiful" in their review published in Der Standard.[11]

Deutinger's 2009[12] map Walled World illustrates how walls, fences, borders and security forces divide the earth into a lower populated wealthy area and a densely populated poorer zone.

Walled World details how the Korean demilitarized zone, activities of the Australian Defence Force, the United States-Mexico border, Spain's Melilia border fence, Europe's Schengen border and the Israeli West Bank barrier form a global anti-migration loop.[13] Inside the loop are 14% of the world's population who generate 73% of the world's income, outside the loop are 86% of the earth's population, who generate 27% of the world's income.[13]

Deutinger has stated that his map was inspired by the German philosopher Peter Sloterdijk.[14] Professor Sabine Niederer of the Amsterdam University of Applied Sciences described the map as "poignant".[14]

With architects Filip Cieloch and Lucia de Usera, in 2015, Deutinger produced the Independence Day map that projected what Europe would look like if every successionist movement succeeded in its goals.[15]
