Visual politics and the aesthetic turn in international relations
have emphasized the power of the image in world politics.
Postcolonial and decolonial feminist theory shows the urgent need
to rethink research and teaching methods. What happens when these
concepts converge and such thinking is translated into practice?
Engaging with a broad range of topics - the politics of everyday
life, health, HIV/AIDS, Africa, post-colonialism, gender/feminist
theory, visuality, film, and method - in Seeing Politics Sophie
Harman looks at scholars who are pushing the boundaries of how they
do research, how they communicate their research to a broader
audience, and what counts as scholarship in world politics. Through
a detailed exploration of the political process of film production,
from inception and co-production to distribution and exhibition,
she addresses the tricky transnational relationships, government
gatekeeping, and global hierarchies of film governance that control
and marginalize the stories and people we see. Fundamentally,
Seeing Politics is about how narrative feature film challenges and
advances the discipline of international relations, revealing
aspects of politics that would otherwise remain unseen and
unaddressed. Film is not just a way of communicating research. It
is a method that produces research and visibility, advancing
research practice and knowledge in international relations.
Innovative and compelling, this book is about the politics of
seeing, being seen, and what stops us from seeing.
