Description
Photography plays a significant role in shaping our understanding of public life. This collection of essays explores how photography influences the way we perceive and engage with the public sphere.
The contributors examine various aspects of photography's impact, including its referential and imaginative qualities, transnational circulation, online publics, social change, violence, conflict, and the ethics of spectatorship. Through studies from around the world, they provide new insights into photography's vital role in defining public life.
