Reviews
"Cold War Camera takes readers from South Africa to Ethiopia, Vietnam to Palestine and Iran, from Chile to China, the Arctic Circle, and beyond. Its reach is sweeping, revealing a world entirely, if differentially, impacted as its most powerful quarreled to suture their place at the top. Just as it sheds light on this rich and storied past, Cold War Camera illuminates the present, proving that the tension and violence associated with the 'official' Cold War-era never ceased but only took on different forms."
-- Liz Hallgren International Journal of Communication
"Cold War Camera more than makes the case for photography’s significance as a site of Cold War contestation and modality for reckoning with its violences, including at the most intimate of scales. . . . It is in the contributions of the book as a collective endeavor, exemplified by the collaboratively written introduction and essays, that the promises of a critically global approach to Cold War structures of seeing emerge most powerfully, as vital for tracing the operations and ramifications of a set of knowledge projects premised, at least in part, on their obfuscation."
-- Nadine Attewell The Communication Review

"Cold War Camera brings together some exceptional photography writers in a collection exploring an astonishing range of source images. . . ."
-- Georgia Vesma History of Photography
-- Georgia Vesma History of Photography
"In its breadth and coverage of the politics of photography in the twentieth century, Cold War Camera is unmatched. . . . [it] represents a new generation of the historiography and critique of political photography."
