As a soldier in the French army, Pierre Bourdieu took thousands of photographs documenting the abject conditions and suffering of the Algerian people as they fought the Algerian War (19541962). Sympathizing with those he was supposed to regard as enemies, Bourdieu instead became deeply and permanently invested in their struggle to overthrow French rule and the debilitations of poverty. This volume pairs 130 of Bourdieus photographs with key excerpts from his related writings, very few of which have been translated into English. Many of these images, luminous aesthetic objects in their own right, comment eloquently on the accompanying words even as they are commented upon by them. Bourdieus work set the standard for all subsequent ethnographic photography and critique. This volume also includes a 2001 interview with Bourdieu, in which he speaks to his experiences in Algeria, its significance on his intellectual evolution, his role in transforming photography into a means for social inquiry, and the duty of the committed intellectual in an increasingly troubled world.
