Drawing on the case of Timor-Leste, the book explores how visual representations mobilize emotions, shape memories, and influence which sufferings are recognized or ignored on the international stage. The work, resulting from the author&#8217;s doctoral thesis, explores the political power of images in constructing narratives about violence, justice, and reparations and engages with important contemporary debates on war photography, humanitarianism, resistance, and the ethics of the gaze.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>IRI invites you to the book launch of &#8220;Affective Imageries: Visual Politics of Wounded Bodies in Timor-Leste,&#8221; by Marcelle Trote Martins (Manchester University, United Kingdom).
