Book Synopsis
Considers the images that circulate with reference to migrants or draw attention to those that accompany, show, or conceal them.

Trade Review
This study provides an outstanding contribution to our knowledge regarding the visual representation and analysis of the migrant experience in the contemporary, globalized world. Challenging established discourses of visual representation of migration, and situating his argument within recent advances in the anthropology of contemporary art, phenomenology, and the ethics of representation, the author develops a new anthropology of the moving image. Highly recommended. -- Arnd Schneider, University of Oslo
