All around the world, images have been the target of totalitarian fury in our time.
On top of the usual censorship from the world’s leaders and powers, today we find it being exercised by lobbies and on social media, sometimes to deadly effect.
This book is a compilation of images that have shocked, upset, or angered censors of all sorts over the last 20 years in every area: political cartoons, illustrations, comics, film, TV, photography, painting, graphic design, street art, posters, book covers, or online. They are culled from every country—the most democratic to the most authoritarian—and from all political, religious, and philosophical ideologies.
