Political Showdown

Political arm wrestling, showdown, cockfighting.

"Political Showdown, a video montage of photographs found on the Internet of handshakes and arm wrestling, illustrates the potential reversibility of political negotiation. A sign of an agreement or a clear understanding, the handshake can just as easily turn against itself and betray a latent rivalry, a power struggle, whether personal or geopolitical, and often both. «
