About the Book

Visual anthropology has proved to offer fruitful methods of research and representation to applied projects of social intervention. Through a series of case studies based on applied visual anthropological work in a range of contexts (health and medicine, tourism and heritage, social development, conflict and disaster relief, community filmmaking and empowerment, and industry) this volume examines both the range contexts in which applied visual anthropology is engaged, and the methodological and theoretical issues it raises.

“...there’s a great deal social researchers doing visual work can learn from Pink’s book…It’s a valuable resource for researchers, activists, and social service workers looking for innovative visual methodologies for collaborative research and social intervention.
