The volume breaks new ground in cutting across disciplinary boundaries and offering case studies on a wide variety of fields of vision and action, and types of conflict: from civil wars in the USA, Spain, Russia and the Congo to recent western interventions in Afghanistan and Iraq.

A central concern of the thirteen contributors has been to investigate the ethical and ideological implications of specific representational choices"--
