This edited book showcases how Global South scholars, particularly those from the Philippines, are not merely catching up with but actively reshaping the evolving landscape of visual data collection, production, and analysis. Bringing together multi- and interdisciplinary works, it highlights the use of visual and multisensory data to explore socio-cultural and political realities in the Philippines, including identities, religion, deviance and democratic participation. By adopting a decolonial framework, it reveals the complexity of Philippine visual culture. This volume will be of interest to sociologists, as well as to scholars focusing on research methods, history, and Asian studies.
