Photography as Social Transformation by Maciej Frackowiak (Paperback Book)

Taylor & Francis Ltd

Photography as Social Transformation resituates the practices of photography within contemporary sociological thinking. It examines how photography influences and shapes social order in the social media age and offers a methodological framework for studying transformation, revealing the forms the process can take and the settings in which it occurs. \nPhotography and the transformation it effects is conceptualized using actor-network theory, allowing it to be effectively studied in the context of globalization and the rapid spread of mobile devices. Going beyond consideration of the images themselves, Maciej Frackowiak analyses the rituals and devices used to take them, the networks in which they circulate, conversations about them and institutional attempts to regulate their content.
