| Summary: | This article focuses on the epistemological and methodological importance of visual sociology. It explains the “social-visual fact” as a theoretical and technical device operating through the reflexivity, meaning and social experience of those who have the “power to see” and where their gazes fall, in other words, the social and perceptive world of those who are “seen”. This yields a sociological knowledge of how one can look and be looked at. We revisit our studies, where photography serves as a platform of visual interaction, the first on the impact of confinement on the domestic sphere, and the second on the staging of precarious youth beyond porn-violence.
