The chapter considers the ways that photography, cinema, and other forms of visual culture have interpreted and made meaning from addiction and the world of illicit drugs. Tracing the place of drugs in popular and mediated discourses of crime, harm, and justice, like the global drug war and popular campaigns against marijuana, crack cocaine, and methamphetamine, the chapter outlines how a visual criminology of drugs can help us decode a visual culture teeming with drug images. This chapter also includes an expanded discussion of some of the ethical challenges facing a visual criminology of drugs.","PeriodicalId":315748,"journal":{"name":"Visual Criminology","volume":"36 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-07-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130588522","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Describing the role of police images in media and visual culture, the chapter takes up body-worn cameras, police mugshots, and the always-lurking cultural figures of police and police violence. The chapter concludes with some notes on the ways that the image and the power of the visual have also been turned against police, and the ways that an imaginary of police abolition might be nurtured through visual challenges to police power.","PeriodicalId":315748,"journal":{"name":"Visual Criminology","volume":"31 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-07-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115595326","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
