WiSe 23/24: Visual global politics – visualizing international relations
Gabriele Schlag
Kommentar
‘Seeing is believing’, a well-known saying goes. As international relations are shaped by images as much as words, scholars are paying increasing attention to the intersection of images, emotions, and global politics. How is a violent conflict, like the war against Ukraine, visually represented on social media? How do in-/visibilities re-produce gender inequality and racist imaginaries on a local, regional, and global scale? What are the political implications of visualizing climate change in specific ways, like the world map turned red?
This seminar introduces students to contemporary debates at the intersection of international relations theory (IR) and visual culture studies. It is conceptualized as a reading seminar with case studies on specific visual policies, representing political violence, migration, gender, climate change and many more. The seminar provides students with a deeper understanding of the role of visuality, visual regimes and images for global politics; fosters a critical engagement with a wide range of literature from different disciplines, including IR, peace research, political theory and cultural studies; and discusses, assess, and evaluates theories and methods to study visual politics.
