Critical Issues in Photojournalism (eBook, ePUB)

Lessons From the Past and Solutions for the Future

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

Drawing on original research and industry experience, this book studies the historical debates and controversies underpinning photojournalism and those practising it today.

Beginning with the origins of photography and the close-knit relationship between journalism and the image, this book goes on to consider the theories that have sought to unpick photography and photojournalism and how these translate to contemporary practice. Hadland examines the present and potential roles of photojournalism in society and reflects on how technological advances such as Artificial Intelligence may impact the profession. Ethical considerations and certain immeasurable dimensions of photography, including concepts of power, truth, and meaning, are brought into question alongside ongoing issues of exclusion and homogeneity amongst professional photojournalists.

Critical Issues in Photojournalism is an ideal primer for students seeking a solid historical, ethical, and reflective understanding of the discipline.
