This book introduces a new research agenda for visual peace research, providing a political analysis of the relationship between visual representations and the politics of violence nationally and internationally. Using a range of genres, from photography to painting, it elaborates on how people can become agents of their own image.

Frank Möller is a Senior Research Fellow at the Tampere Peace Research Institute (TAPRI), School of Social Sciences and Humanities, University of Tampere, Finland.
