Описание: Drawing on research from multiple disciplines and international case studies, this book provides a comprehensive and up-to-date understanding of online disinformation and its potential countermeasures.
Disinformation is as old as humanity. When Satan told Eve nothing would happen if she bit the apple, that was disinformation. But the rise of social media has made disinformation even more pervasive and pernicious in our current era. In a disturbing turn of events, governments are increasingly using disinformation to create their own false narratives, and democracies are proving not to be very good at fighting it.
During the final three years of the Obama administration, Richard Stengel, the former editor of Time and an Under Secretary of State, was on the front lines of this new global information war. At the time, he was the single person in government tasked with unpacking, disproving, and combating both ISIS's messaging and Russian disinformation. Then, in 2016, as the presidential election unfolded, Stengel watched as Donald Trump used disinformation himself, weaponizing the grievances of Americans who felt left out by modernism. In fact, Stengel quickly came to see how all three players had used the same playbook: ISIS sought to make Islam great again; Putin tried to make Russia great again; and we all know about Trump.
In a narrative that is by turns dramatic and eye-opening, Information Wars walks readers through of this often frustrating battle. Stengel moves through Russia and Ukraine, Saudi Arabia and Iraq, and introduces characters from Putin to Hillary Clinton, John Kerry and Mohamed bin Salman to show how disinformation is impacting our global society. He illustrates how ISIS terrorized the world using social media, and how the Russians launched a tsunami of disinformation around the annexation of Crimea - a scheme that became the model for their interference with the 2016 presidential election. An urgent book for our times, Information Wars stresses that we must find a way to combat this ever growing threat to democracy.

Описание: "Year of American Discontent" is a collection of articles that examines the four crises that plagued America in 2020. In a tumultuous year, America was brought to a critical crisis point. This book consolidates some of these articles to help readers gain a broader perspective of the current issues, differentiate between subjective and objective information, find common ground with others who have radically different points of view, and contribute to the promising multi-cultural living in America. The articles in this collection were previous posted in Kris Murthys Blog: murthysmusings.com. Murthy addresses the following issues with thoughtful commentary and detailed analysis: -First, there is the "Creeping Crisis" of racial injustice. Many Americans are under the illusion that the Civil Rights laws of the 1960s had solved the problem of racial discrimination. However, racial divisions and mistrust remain. -Second. America is influenced by politics of extremism. America is taken over by the politics of the extremes of both the left and right. -Third is the "Slow Burn Crisis" of disinformation. The print and visual news media have become subjective participants in opinion journalism. -Finally, there is the "Current Crisis" of dysfunction. There is gross inefficiency in all our public institutions. Federal, State, Local and quasi-governmental agencies fail to deliver services efficiently to the population. This book provides objective, non-partisan, and original commentary on the events of 2020. The issues are also viewed in their historic context. This is a must-read for all who endured the chaos of 2020 and are hopeful to be a part of the collective change to remedy these issues.
