Description

Conversations on Conflict Photography offers a thought-provoking exploration of the complexities and challenges faced by those who document suffering around the world through photography. This collection of conversations brings together award-winning photographers, photo editors, and representatives from major human rights and humanitarian organizations to discuss the purpose and ethics of conflict photography. Through their experiences, struggles, and successes, these practitioners shed light on the difficulties of capturing images in crisis situations, while also highlighting the value of this work in raising awareness about human rights issues. The book is richly illustrated with challenging and sometimes beautiful images, making it a unique and rounded examination of the role of conflict photography in today's world. A foreword by Sebastian Junger sets the tone for this insightful exploration, which invites readers to consider the impact of conflict photography on both those who create it and those who view it.
