SPHAIROS JOURNAL #14 - CRISIS COMMUNICATION AND POLITICS IN TIMES OF VISUAL CULTURE
170 x 240mm, 228 pages, Colour printing, Perfect bound, Softcover, Edition of 300, 2023
In today’s world, crises have in many ways become part of our reality. We are participants in and witnesses to permacrisis as a time of protracted insecurity and instability. Besieged by constant challenges, we respond to complex political, social, and cultural issues, climate change, and today’s current affairs. And indeed, the field of crises that surrounds us is endless: Some crises, such as the crisis of war and the dangers of survival, lead to religious, migratory, energy, food, and personal crises. On the other hand, crises are interconnected, affecting each other and our daily lives. The dominant image culture reflects complex realities: how to survive in the face of a crisis without losing one’s values and critical reflection, how to apply existing experiences, and how to use effective methods of impact and action to address crises.
