Description
Image making of all kinds is bound up with questions of ethics. Who has the right to represent other people's lives? What are the consequences of tackling sensitive social and political issues through the lens of documentary photography, film making, and digital media? This course places contemporary debates over the ethics of image making in the historical perspective of debates going back to the 19th century in order to see points of convergence and divergence in the practices of image making and criticism. This course may be used as an elective in the Corporate Communication major, or in the Tier III minor in Communication Studies.
