Description

This book reconceptualises the idea of ‘post-truth’. It does not limit the domain of post-truth to the production factories of fake news. Drawing on examples such as Trump, War on Terror, anti-vaccination, climate change denial, denial of scientific facts about smoking and so forth, it analyses the concept through a new theoretical lens which focuses on the specificity of post-truth discourses. Further, the volume develops a guide to operationalise post-truth discourse and makes use of Pakistan as a case study to illustrate post-truth discourses in Pakistani newspapers and implements an experiment to measure the effects of post-truth rhetoric on political attitudes. The volume will be essential reading for students, scholars and researchers of media and communication studies, politics and South Asian studies.

Author Biography:

Anam Kuraishi is a Postdoctoral Researcher at the University of Antwerp. Her research centers on elite rhetoric, political behaviour, South Asian politics, and comparative politics. She investigates the implications of post-truth rhetoric on political behaviour, democratic backsliding, and the rise of authoritarian politics. She received her PhD in Government from the University of Essex and an MSc in Comparative Politics from London School of Economics. She has held visiting positions at the Collegio Carlo Alberto - University of Turin, and Aarhus University.
