Bringing a "sceptical optimism" to bear on humanitarian politics today, Lilie Chouliaraki explores the nexus of media and affect in this breakthrough investigation. With its theoretical finesse and rich cases, The Ironic Spectator shows the transformations solidarity has recently undergone, and still needs to make, as citizens seek an emotional connection to a tragic but distant world.
Samuel Moyn, Columbia University, author of The Last Utopia: Human Rights in History
Lilie Chouliaraki is the Aristotle of mediated humanitarianism. With empirical finesse and theoretical bite, she shows how compassion for distant suffering turnedfrom pity into glitz. And yet she defends theatricality as a potential moral force if checked by critical self-awareness. This book casts desperately needed light onto media and morality today.
John Durham Peters, University of Iowa
The Ironic Spectator is a profoundly arresting argument for our global and mediated times. With razor intelligence Chouliaraki slices into old debates, salvages what’s still of use and structures new analytical constructs for the exploration of the possibilities of cosmopolitan solidarity in a ‘post-humanitarian’ world. Brilliant, Disturbing, Humane.
Simon Cottle, Cardiff University
