'Gathering scholars from a wide array of disciplines and backgrounds, Darren Lilleker and Anastasia Veneti's new Research Handbook on Visual Politics offers timely insights by exploring how visuality plays a central role across numerous pressing political phenomena, from social movements to war and from election campaigns to pandemic policies.' -- Roland Bleiker, author of Visual Global Politics, University of Queensland, Australia 'How were historical monarchs artistically portrayed to legitimate power? What are the benefits and challenges in using eye-tracking technology to study recipients' perception of political visuals? How are journalistic war images used to support political perspectives and powers? These questions, and many more, are answered in this edited volume where scholars from different fields, with different theoretical and methodological perspectives shed light on how images are used in politics. Since we all live in a visual culture, this is a must read for anyone interested in contemporary political communication.' -- Bengt Johansson, University of Gothenburg, Sweden
