VERSIÓN EN ESPAÑOL

A controversy has arisen on Sweden because of the Paul Hansen’s picture, which won in the Swedish Picture of the Year Awards 2011, in the picture we can see Fabienne, a 14 year old girl who was murdered by the police after she was caught stealing two chairs and some paintings from a store after earthquake hits Haiti..

Now is know that there were 14 journalist in the scene at the moment of the girl’s death, which has unleashed critics and a debate about the photographers’ ethic. The controversy became when the photograph Nathan Weber published a picture of the same image that won the prize but from a perspective in which we can see the girl laying on the ground and surrounded by photographers.

The debate that is arising in Sweden is base on the question ´would have people given less donations to disaster help if that picture wasn’t published? Or would have been less resources and professionals intended for the cause?
