Iconomy: Towards a Political Economy of Images argues that imagery of all kinds--from visual icons in social media, advertising, news broadcasting and political campaigns, in architecture and art through to more private realms such as dreams--has become a definitive force in the shaping of contemporary life. They have become, substantially, iconomic. It has become a vital part, often a primary medium, in most of the many economies operative within contemporary societies, in commercial exchange, public politics, cultural contestation, and subject formation.
Yet this imagery is generated and flows, accretes, shifts, and swops, runs free or is managed, according to its inherent potentials and limits--that is, for all its immersion in wider economies, however much it saturates them, it is an economy of its own, an iconomy.Part I traces
