Excellent- More about This is War: A Decade of Conflict: Photographs
This Is War is a powerful and intimate photographic record of some of the bloodiest conflicts of the late twentieth century, by Corinne Dufka, a Capa Gold Medal winner and Pulitzer Prize–nominated photographer. The images chart revolutions, coups, separatist movements, and mass atrocities across nine different countries on three continents, and are as brutal as they are tender, as mournful as they are meaningful. They interrogate abuse of power, celebrate defiance, and seek out the humanity of civilians and combatants who lives were torn apart by war.

This is War is a powerful and intimate photographic journey through some of the most devastating conflicts of the late twentieth century. Award-winning photographer Corinne Dufka, a Capa Gold Medal winner and Pulitzer Prize-nominated journalist, captured the lives of civilians and combatants affected by revolutions, coups, separatist movements, and mass atrocities across nine countries on three continents.
The book begins in El Salvador during the Cold War and moves on to Bosnia, Africa, and the Congo. Dufka's photographs are a testament to the profound toll conflict takes on individuals and communities. They are as brutal as they are tender, as mournful as they are meaningful, and they interrogate abuse of power, celebrate defiance, and seek out the humanity of those caught in the midst of war.
This is War is more than just a documentary; it is a personal enlightenment and a call to action. It adds to the historical record of under-covered conflicts and the role of women in photojournalism, and it urges viewers to question why these conflicts persist to this day.
After leaving photojournalism, Dufka became a war crimes investigator, for which she was awarded a MacArthur Fellowship in 2003. In her introduction to the book, she reflects on her experiences and the lessons she learned from her work.
This is War is a powerful and unforgettable testament to the human cost of war and the resilience of the human spirit. It will stay in the hearts and minds of those who view it, inspiring them to do what they can to help stop conflict and promote peace.
