När Anders Petersen var elev på Christer Strömholms fotoskola i Stockholm 1966-68 gick Christer igenom Anders kontaktark och markerade ett C på de få bilder han kunde förlika sig med. ”Jag kopierade flera av de C-märkta negativen, små konstiga och hårda bilder som egentligen bara var imitationer av Christers egna. De var sårbara och jag tyckte om dem. Men de kändes som om de inte tillhörde mig. Efter en stunds letande bland kontaktarken överväldigades jag av alla möjliga andra bilder, sådana som varken Christer eller jag tidigare brytt oss om. Kanske blir ögonen mjukare med åren och mer förlåtande. Den visuella perceptionen förändras och arken öppnar upp för en annan tolkning. Det är inte många av de C-märkta bilderna som finns kvar i det slutliga urvalet.” Efterord av Gerry Badger, som skriver: ”… Bilderna i denna bok är tagna mellan 1967 och 1970 i Paris, Genua, Stockholm och Hamburg, och många av dem har hittills varit opublicerade ... Anders Petersen är i ett relativt sällsynt sällskap, eftersom han kan betraktas som en av de bästa fotografiska porträttörerna. Den här boken kan ses som ytterligare ett exempel på varför så tveklöst är fallet …”

Innehåller 42 fotografier (återgivna i duplextryck) av Anders Petersen, född 1944 och sedan flera decennier en av Sveriges mest tongivande och internationellt erkända fotografier. Birna Marianne Kleivan, dansk fotohistoriker och -skribent, svarar för texten - en intervju med fotografen och en summering av hans verk. Hon skriver: "Drift och dröm frammanas i en rad djuriskt orienterade fotografier, som bland annat fascinerar genom deras på en gång gränsöverskridande och kyska framställning av det primitiva och människans mer mörka sidor. Det är en farlig och fuktig värld, full av sirensång och sår som inte vill läka. Där demoner hålls på avstånd genom ställföresträdare, samtidigt som extasens tillfälliga lyckorus fixeras, innan en avgrund av mänsklig ensamhet åter öppnar sig." Finns också i en engelsk utgåva: Close distance.

As modern society’s routine sequestration of death and grief is increasingly replaced by late-modern society’s growing concern with existential issues and emotionality, this book explores grief as a social emotion, bringing together contributions from scholars across the social sciences and humanities to examine its social and cultural aspects. Thematically organised in order to consider the historical changes in our understanding of grief, literary treatments of grief, contemporary forms of grief and grief as a perspective from which to engage in critique of society, it provides insights into the sociality of grief and will appeal to scholars of sociology, social theory and cultural studies with interests in the emotions and social pathologies.

This volume draws together the work of a diverse range of thinkers and researchers to address the question of happiness critically, using a wide variety of theoretical and empirical methodologies. Broadening the discussion beyond what might be considered highly individual and insular conceptualizations of happiness, often based on purely positivist approaches to the subject, authors raise questions about the nature of individual and collective anxieties that might underpin the current emphasis on happiness and the ideological or governmental ends that may be served by the framing of happiness in psychology and economics. With attention to how individuals understand and pursue happiness in their daily lives, Critical Happiness Studies highlights different theoretical paradigms that demonstrate the role of power in producing specific conceptualizations of happiness and, consequently, how they frame individual self-understanding or subjectivities and (re)shape political problems. The collection makes available critical, theoretical, and methodological resources for addressing a powerful set of cultural, political, and scientific discourses that have loomed large since the closing decade of the 20th century. A call for the establishment of a body of work in critical happiness studies, this book will appeal to scholars across the social sciences and humanities interested in the age-old problem of happiness.
Late Modern Subjectivity and its Discontents

This book analyses three of the most prevalent illnesses of late modernity: anxiety, depression and Alzheimer’s disease, in terms of their relation to cultural pathologies of the social body. Usually these conditions are interpreted clinically in terms of individualized symptoms and responded to discretely, as though for the most part unrelated to each other. However, these diseases also have a social and cultural profile that transcends their particular symptomologies and etiologies. Anxiety, depression and Alzheimer’s are diseases related to disorders of the collective esprit de corps of contemporary society.Multidisciplinary in approach, the book addresses questions of how these conditions are manifest at both the individual and collective levels in relation to hegemonic biomedical and psychologistic understandings. Rejecting such reductive diagnoses, the authors argue that anxiety, depression and Alzheimer’s disease, as well as other contemporary epidemics, are to be analysed in the light of individual and collective experiences of profound and radical changes in our civilization. A diagnosis of our times, Late Modern Subjectivity and its Discontents will appeal to a broad range of scholars with interests in health and illness, the sociology of medicine and contemporary life.
Imaginative Methodologies in the Social Sciences

Imaginative Methodologies in the Social Sciences develops, expands and challenges conventional social scientific methodology and language by way of literary, poetic and other alternative sources of inspiration, as sociologists, social workers, anthropologists, criminologists and psychologists all rethink, provoke and reignite social scientific methodology. Challenging the mainstream orthodoxy of social scientific methodology, which closely guards the boundaries between the social sciences and the arts and humanities, this volume reveals that authors and artists are often engaged in projects parallel to those of the social sciences and vice versa, thus demonstrating that artistic and cultural production does not necessarily constitute a specialist field, but is in fact integral to social reality. As such, it will be of interest to scholars and students in the social sciences and across the arts and humanities working on the philosophy of social science, methodology, social theory, creativity, poetics, pedagogy and other related topics.

The Social Pathologies of Contemporary Civilization explores the nature of contemporary malaises, diseases, illnesses and psychosomatic syndromes, examining the manner in which they are related to cultural pathologies of the social body. Multi-disciplinary in approach, the book is concerned with questions of how these conditions are not only manifest at the level of individual patients' bodies, but also how the social 'bodies politic' are related to the hegemony of reductive biomedical and individual-psychologistic perspectives. Rejecting a reductive, biomedical and individualistic diagnosis of contemporary problems of health and well-being, The Social Pathologies of Contemporary Civilization contends that many such problems are to be understood in the light of radical changes in social structures and institutions, extending to deep crises in our civilization as a whole. Rather than considering such conditions in isolation - both from one another and from broader contexts - this book argues that health and well-being are not just located at the level of the individual body, the integral human person, or even collective social bodies; rather, they encompass the health of humanity as a whole and our relationship with Nature. A ground-breaking analysis of social malaise and the health of civilization, this book will be of interest to scholars of sociology, social theory, social psychology, philosophy and anthropology.

I Du mich auch (tyska, "Du mej också") återknyter Anders Petersen banden med ungdomen genom 72 fotografier (återgivna i duplextryck) från Hamburg och Stockholm i slutet av 1960-talet. Endast ett fåtal av dem har publicerats tidigare. Petersen skriver inledningsvis: "Jag minns samhörigheten, rädslan, en oförställd nyfikenhet och vår solidaritet. Det handlade sällan om fotografi. Inte i första hand. Det var att möta människor, att undersöka olika verkligheter, som var avgörande. Så är det fortfarande. I dag ser jag bilderna i ett förändrat perspektiv, men de knyter ihop det som var då med det som är nu." Anders Petersen, född 1944, har under flera decennier varit en av Sveriges mest tongivande och internationellt erkända fotografer.

Photographs by Anders Petersen. Preface by Ingrid Fischer Jonge. Essay and interview by Birna Marianne Kleivan. Fischer Jonge writes: "In various different projects he has photographed the imprisoned of this world. And in the universe of Anders Petersen imprisonment in life has many shapes and forms. There are regular inmates in prisons, but there are also the patients of institutions. While the most rudimentary imprisonment of all is self-imprisonment. Locked inside one's body. Filled with fear for the life one never attains. Photographing such states requires something special. Sober-minded impressions become more important than concrete phenomena, and the pictorial universe of Anders Petersen is at once quiet intimation and powerful language, with human instincts supplying a reverberating undertone." Swedish edition: Nära avstånd.

Tillfälligt slut
Speaking about her relationship with Naples, Lea Vergine once said that it was the only city that did not have a ghetto. Remarking “do you think a Neapolitan cares if you are Jewish or whatever?” This nonchalance for the other, by whom one wants to be looked at, yet always eluding the judgment, is what I find in Anders Petersen’s shots. A kind of continual escape, an ability to speak only through fragments. Yet everything can be found in these fragments: there is irony and sensuality, and a kind of ancient nobility, there is surrender to the artist’s eye, yes, but never completely. There is trust, though. Trust and defiance always walk these paths together, in what percentage is unknown: the subject sets them each time, or the photographer finds them in that sole possible motion that grounds a relationship, that is, the encounter. These photographs are born in this undetermined space, pertaining more to the soul than to topography, at the crossroads between Petersen’s imagination and the hyperbolic reality he – or better, we – intersect. Thus, he renders it back to us in the only way it can be rendered. No one will ever know how to shape this chaos, but we can, through our observing eyes, both make it our own and be a part of it, knowing that it will mutate, escape us, betray itself, and that what we see will only be true in the instant it occurred. Never before have I been able to find, as I did in this work by a man so distant in origins from Mediterranean culture, the words used by Fabrizia Ramondino in her 1991 biography Star di casa: “Naples, where it is so difficult to live and so tempting to leave, which is so difficult to abandon and always compels one to return, becomes, more than any others, the emblematic place of the general human condition of our time: to find oneself on an uninhabitable planet and yet to know that this is the only one that for the time being we can call home.
