- Photography After Capitalism (2020) opens up a new field of enquiry: photography’s complex relationships to global capitalist systems. This 230-page book offers a radically expanded conception of photography, exposing the hidden labour involved in the production and consumption of digital images and questioning its political consequences. Bringing together cultural criticism, social history and political philosophy, the book analyses the contributions of digital content moderators, Street View car drivers, Google ‘Scan-Ops’, low-paid gallery interns, and the multitude of social media photo-sharers to representations of our photographic lives, examining how they shape definitions of photography and the social relations that comprise it.
