Drones and the Annihilation-Image in Contemporary Warfare: The Case of ‘Eye in the Sky’ in the Washington-Hollywood Entanglement (Global Political Sociology)

Price range: ₨ 500.00 through ₨ 1,100.00

This book analyses the entanglement between Washington and Hollywood to shed light on the violence inherent in the image as a semiotic-material agent in contemporary warfare. In the 21st century, the weaponized military drone, an image-centered machine, has spearheaded the geopolitical curatorship of the USA in the context of the war on terror. Drone violence shares the same characteristics as cinema: image and movement. However, a drone’s image is not purely a reflection of the nature of war; it is more than representational, it is per formative. Building upon the concept of annihilation-image, this book argues that the image wields a destructive agency as it transitions from reflection to diffraction. Rather than mirroring reality, the annihilation-image creates a brutal pattern of difference in the world. It is a destructive ontology in which seeing and annihilating are in a state of superposition. Therefore, everything that is framed is potentially dead. That is to say, by framing bodies and objects in the terrain, a state of super positional violence is created in which one is alive, but virtually dead.

Description

Drones and the Annihilation-Image in Contemporary Warfare: The Case of ‘Eye in the Sky’ in the Washington-Hollywood Entanglement (Global Political Sociology)

By:  Gabriel F.Caetano (Author)

  • Entangled Analysis: Examines the complex relationship between Washington and Hollywood, focusing on the role of imagery in contemporary warfare.
  • Weaponized Drones: Investigates how military drones, as image-centered machines, have influenced U.S. geopolitical strategies in the war on terror.
  • Shared Characteristics: Highlights the similarities between drone violence and cinematic representation, emphasizing the interplay of image and movement.
  • Destructive Agency: Proposes that images do not simply mirror reality but create brutal patterns of difference, establishing a destructive ontology.
  • Superpositional Violence: Explores the notion that framing bodies and objects leads to a state of superpositional violence, where entities exist as both alive and virtually dead.
  • Implications of Framing: Suggests that the act of framing in warfare not only captures reality but also generates a potential for destruction, complicating our understanding of life and death in conflict.
