En 'La fotografía como documento social', Gisèle Freund explora la interdependencia entre las expresiones artísticas y la sociedad, centrándose en la cultura fotográfica francesa desde el siglo XIX hasta los años 70 del siglo XX. La autora analiza cómo las técnicas de la imagen fotográfica transformaron la visión del mundo y su función en la evolución del retrato individual y colectivo, prestando especial atención al mundo burgués del siglo XIX y su relación con la producción y reproducción mecánica.

Gisèle Freund was a German-born French photographer and photojournalist, famous for her documentary photography and portraits of writers and artists. Her best-known book, Photographie et société (1974), is a expanded edition of her seminal 1936 dissertation. It was the first sociohistorical study on photography as a democratic medium of self-representation in the age of technological reproduction. With this first doctoral thesis on photography at the Sorbonne, she was one of the first women habilitated there.
