Crime was psychologized in the nineteenth century, Michel Foucault claimed. At that time judges were no longer simply experts in the law, but experts in the criminal mind as well.

In the age of Instagram, communicating through images has become a necessary part of contemporary life. No longer a luxury, finding meaning through images is becoming a Maslovian need.
