This interdisciplinary collection of essays explores the impact of media, emerging technologies, and education on the resilience of the so-called post-truth society. This book explores if a return to civic participation, enhanced critical media literacy, journalism for the public good, techno-interventions and lifelong learning systems can collectively foster a more engaged global citizenry.
The post-truth society is associated with a raft of terms that challenge the very notion of what should constitute a democratic and inclusive society: the decline and fall of reason  the disruption of the public sphere  the spread of misleading information  fake news  culture wars  the rise of subjectivity  the co-opting of language  filters, silos and tribes  attention deficits  trolls, polarisation and hyper-partisanship  the conversion of popularity into legitimacy  manipulation by populist  leaders, governments, and fringe actors  algorithmic control, targeted messaging and native advertising  surveillance and platform capitalism.
The contributions from scholars, technologists, policy-makers and activists raise critical questions about the nature and power of knowledge in the 21st century. Readers are challenged to question their own role in perpetuating certain narratives and to also understand the lived context of people on all sides of a given debate. The diverse perspectives by geography, sector, gender and world-views will widen the appeal of this work to an international audience trying to understand the resilience of the post-truth society.
