3 ‘As a specific type of entity, images are the object of a twofold question: the question of their origin (and consequently their truth content) and the question of their end or purpose, the uses they are put to and the effects they result in.’ Jacques Rancière, The Politics of Aesthetics (London; New York: Continuum, 2004), p. 20. It was Michael J. Shapiro's article, ‘The Sublime Today: Re-Partitioning the Global Sensible’, in Millennium: Journal of International Studies, Special Issue: Between Fear and Wonder: International Politics, Representation and ‘the Sublime’, 34:3 (2006), pp. 657–82. that led me to the engagement with Rancière.
