Games and Politics
Catalogue of the touring exhibition “Games And Politics”
Whether computer games are seen as a political issue, as an entertainment medium or-even-as art, they all have to be viewed in a contextual manner. Every game positions itself in a society and picks it out as the central issue at the same time. A political relevance can be postulated for all computer games, even if they seem to evade any kind of political action. At the other end of the spectrum are games which are consciously used for the purpose of political education or propaganda objectives. The touring exhibition GAMES AND POLITICS as well as this catalogue examine how computer games unfold their political potential.
