Moises Saman is a Magnum photographer

from Lima, Peru, and currently based in Jordan

who has covered conflicts around the world,

including in Kosovo, Iraq and Afghanistan.

His last assignment for the magazine was

photographing Japanese families on holiday in

Gunma, Kagoshima and Kanagawa prefectures.

This week he photographed protests in Iraq

demanding an end to corruption. ‘‘I’ve been

coming to Iraq since 2002,’’ Saman says. ‘‘This

time, what was most striking was the younger

generation rising up. They have inherited disorder:

the American invasion and the internal and

regional conflicts that followed. Despite the

appalling violence I witnessed against protesters,

I found the situation to be hopeful. They are trying

to reclaim their country and a real future.’’

‘‘Wages of Corruption,’’

filmmaker based in Philadelphia, with a focus on

‘‘A Rage for Order,’’ won the 2017 Lionel Gelber

Prize. He last wrote about the leader of the United

Arab Emirates, Mohammed bin Zayed.
