Violence
At many times in the world, war and violence are the predominant determinants of state management. This violence, as the author Samar Yazbek shows through the example of Syria, is used as an instrument of domination by all parties to the conflict. Here, media images play a crucial role in shaping public perception. “Terrorist” violence is considered illegitimate, while state violence is “normal.” The global transmission of images of violence is a component of a mechanism that erases memory, thus contributing to falsifying and instrumentalizing a history in which state structures are dissolved by the reign of violence.
