Post-adevăr și „Fake news“. De la tribalizare la filtre – Interviu cu Constantin Vică
Journal Title: Sfera Politicii - Year 2017, Vol 25, Issue 1
Abstract
The interview addresses the concept of „post-truth“ and tries to get its meaning and its limits. The reference point is that of social networks which impose filters of reality and tribalize the Internet users. Post-truth is seen as a virus of democracy and as a challenge to Political science, and the „fake news“ phenomenon is analyzed in the light of its stake: to generate reluctance to believe anything.
