Effective visual communication has become an essential strategy for
grassroots political activists, who use images to publicly express
resistance and make their claims visible in the struggle for
political power. However, this "aesthetics of resistance" is also
employed by political and economic elites for their own purposes,
making it increasingly difficult to distinguish from the
"aesthetics of rule." Through illuminating case studies of street
art in Buenos Aires, Bogota , Caracas, and Mexico City, The
Aesthetics of Rule and Resistance explores the visual strategies of
persuasion and meaning-making employed by both rulers and resisters
to foster self-legitimization, identification, and mobilization.
