Fact Resistance, Populism, and Conspiracy Theory -- Chapter 6. The Post-Factual Democracy. 330 $aThis open access book looks at how a democracy can devolve into a post-factual state. The media is being flooded by populist narratives, fake news, conspiracy theories and make-believe. Misinformation is turning into a challenge for all of us, whether politicians, journalists, or citizens. In the age of information, attention is a prime asset and may be converted into money, power, and influence ? sometimes at the cost of facts. The point is to obtain exposure on the air and in print media, and to generate traffic on social media platforms. With information in abundance and attention scarce, the competition is ever fiercer with truth all too often becoming the first victim. Reality Lost: Markets of Attention, Misinformation and Manipulation is an analysis by philosophers Vincent F. Hendricks and Mads Vestergaard of the nuts and bolts of the information market, the attention economy and media eco-system which may pave way to postfactual democracy. Here misleading narratives become the basis for political opinion formation, debate, and legislation. To curb this development and the threat it poses to democratic deliberation, political self-determination and freedom, it is necessary that we first grasp the mechanisms and structural conditions that cause it. . 606 $aInternet marketing 606 $aDigital media 606 $aPhilosophy 606 $aBehavioral economics 606 $aOnline Marketing/Social Media$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/513010 606 $aDigital/New Media$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/412040 606 $aPhilosophy of Technology$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/E34050 606 $aBehavioral/Experimental Economics$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/W54000 610 $aMisinformation 610 $aAttention Economics 610 $aDonald Trump 610 $aSocial Media 610 $aPopulism 610 $aInformation Age 610 $aDigital Authority 610 $aInformation 610 $aConspiracy Theory 610 $aDemocracy 610 $aPolitics 610 $aPhilosophy 610 $aDigitial Slavery 615 0$aInternet marketing. 615 0$aDigital media. 615 0$aPhilosophy. 615 0$aBehavioral economics. 615 14$aOnline Marketing/Social Media. 615 24$aDigital/New Media. 615 24$aPhilosophy of Technology. 615 24$aBehavioral/Experimental Economics. 676 $a658.872 700 $aHendricks$b Vincent F$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$066497 702 $aVestergaard$b Mads$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910293139003321 996 $aReality Lost$92084850 997 $aUNINA
