La manipulación de la verdad

Forty years ago, Peter Pomerantsev's parents had to leave Soviet Ukraine, where censorship prevented free access to the truth and all information. Today things have changed radically and we live in a new era in which the abundance of data is overwhelming, but paradoxically this has not brought the benefits we expected. The information war that is currently being waged on the networks, both in authoritarian regimes and in democracies, has managed to contaminate and modify the truth by surrounding it with false news. In The manipulation of truth, Pomerantsev brilliantly analyzes and denounces the strategies and interests to manipulate reality, which exist at all levels: from bots and anonymous hackers to rulers like Putin and Trump.
