  • More about Visual Politics in the Global South

The role of the visual in politics is gaining momentum in scholarly work, with little attention paid to approaches produced by scholars in the Global South. This project aims to examine visual politics in the Global South through theoretically driven and empirically grounded case studies, focusing on the role of the visual in formal and public politics.

The role of the visual in politics is gaining increasing scholarly attention in the context of the contemporary social media landscape. It is widely recognized that the production, dissemination, and consumption of visual products in the Global South are profoundly shaped by geo-politics and a power dynamics in which the Global North dominates the South (the cultural imperialism argument). However, limited attention has been given to theoretical, methodological, and empirically grounded approaches to visual politics produced by scholars working in the Global South. There is a paucity of knowledge regarding the ways in which scholarship in the Global South might challenge and resist Western approaches to the study of the visual.

Against this backdrop, this project aims to examine visual politics in the Global South through theoretically driven and empirically grounded case studies, which specifically focus on the role of the visual in formal politics (e.g., political campaigns, the relationship between the state and citizens) and public and everyday politics (e.g., social movements, activism, grassroots politics, civil society initiatives). This volume explores visual politics in the Global South through theoretically driven and empirically grounded case studies, which specifically focus on the role of the visual in formal politics (e.g., political campaigns, the relationship between the state and citizens) and public and everyday politics. It is anticipated that this volume will be of interest to both researchers and students with an interest in the study of visual politics from various disciplinary perspectives, including media and communication, anthropology, politics, and sociology.
