Icons of War and Terror explores theories of iconic images of war and terror, not as received pieties but as challenging uncertainties; in doing so, it engages with both critical discourse and conventional image-making. The authors draw on these theories to re-investigate the media/global context of some of the most iconic representations of war and terror in the international 'risk society'. Among these photojournalistic images are: Nick Media, War and SecurityWar in mass mediaTerrorism in mass mediaViolence in mass mediaVisual communicationPolitical aspectsElectronic books.War in mass media.Terrorism in mass media.Violence in mass media.Visual communicationPolitical aspects.303.6Tulloch John.615398Blood Richard Warwick1947-954954MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910461792403321Icons of war and terror2159949UNINA
