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 $aTelemarketing 606 $aInternet marketing 606 $aDigital media 606 $aTechnology$xPhilosophy 606 $aExperimental economics 606 $aDigital Marketing 606 $aDigital and New Media 606 $aPhilosophy of Technology 606 $aExperimental Economics 615 0$aTelemarketing. 615 0$aInternet marketing. 615 0$aDigital media. 615 0$aTechnology$xPhilosophy. 615 0$aExperimental economics. 615 14$aDigital Marketing. 615 24$aDigital and New Media. 615 24$aPhilosophy of Technology. 615 24$aExperimental Economics. 676 $a658.872 676 $a658.872 686 $aBUS085000$aBUS090030$aPHI021000$aSOC052000$2bisacsh 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
