This book explores how the experience of war and related atrocities
tend to be visually expressed and how such articulations and
representations are circulated and consumed. Each chapter of this
volume examines how an image can contribute to a richer
understanding of the experience of war and atrocity and thus they
contribute to the burgeoning field of the "criminology of war".
Topics include the destruction of war in oppositional cultural
forms - comparing the Nazi period with the ISIS destruction of
Palmyra - and the visual aesthetics of violence deployed by Jihadi
terrorism. The contributors are a multi-disciplinary team drawn
mainly from criminology but also sociology, international
relations, gender studies, English and the visual arts. This book
will advance this field in new directions with refreshing, original
work.
