520 |a In our wired world, visual images of military conflict and political strife are ubiquitous. Far less obvious, far more elusive, is how we see such images, how witnessing military violence and suffering affects us. Distant Wars Visible brings a new perspective to such enduring questions about conflict photography and other forms of visual advocacy, whether in support of U.S. military objectives or in critique of the nation at war. At the book's center is what author Wendy Kozol calls an analytic of ambivalence-a critical approach to the tensions between spectacle and empathy provoked by gazing.
