Exploring multiple forms of peace photography, the volume offers a range of voices from preeminent international scholars, as well as interviews with practicing photographers who have experience of working with post-conflict communities. As such, the book provides a timely investigation into the politics of representation, questioning how photographers might help foster social relationships, transform conflicts, and reconcile communities in the image-oriented cultures.\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eTom Allbeson \u003c\/b\u003eis Reader in Media and Photographic History at the School of Journalism, Media and Culture at Cardiff University, UK. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cb\u003eJolyon Mitchell \u003c\/b\u003eis Principal of St John's College, Durham and a Professor specialising in Religion, Violence and Peacebuilding at Durham University, UK. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cb\u003ePippa Oldfield \u003c\/b\u003eis Senior Lecturer in Photography at Teesside University, UK, and former Head of Programme at Impressions Gallery, Bradford.\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 352\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.77 x 9.21 x 6.14 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e June 25, 2026\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48757290041593,"sku":"9781350258891","price":71.91,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0789\/2782\/3097\/files\/9N1HmhrMgT9781350258891.webp?v=1785946257","url":"https:\/\/bookscloud.io\/products\/picturing-peace-photography-conflict-transformation-and-peacebuilding-paperback","provider":"BooksCloud Book Dropshipping","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
