Taking these events as points of departure, Göttke investigates the conditions of this visual genre of protest, its roots and genealogies in a number of countries, its aesthetics and politics. Effigy protests communicate communal outrage over perceived injustice. Hanging and burning effigies is an archaic and ritualistic form of protest, yet it is effectively communicated through global news media and social media, mediated, and used trans-nationally. The book contains two interacting narratives: text (seven chapters) and a parallel montage of images. It delves deeply into the different practices, iconologies, rituals, protest and media strategies, as well as into politics and concludes with a reflection on how the effigy protests act as a symptom of fundamental conflicts at the limits of contemporary liberal democracy. With many images from the United States, Iraq, Egypt, Iran, Afghanistan, and many other areas. 650 0 Documentary photography. 650 0 Executions in effigy. 650 0 Protest movements. 650 0 Arab Spring, 2010- 880 |6245 942 |2ddc |cBK 952 |00 |10 |2ddc |40 |6700_000000000000000_GOT |70 |8REF |9163167OSA |bOSA |d2023-09-26 |eOSA |l0 |o700 GOT |r2023-09-26 |w2023-09-26 |yBK |cReference 920 01 KXMBm9Y7 992 01 700_000000000000000_GOT |bSZZ_ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ_JB6 966 |cIn the Research Room
