Wir können ihn täglich beobachten — den immer härteren und schrilleren Krieg um Macht und Vorherrschaft in den digitalen Medien. Doch wer kämpft eigentlich gegen wen? Der international renommierte Medienexperte Martin Andree zeigt, wie eine Koalition aus Dark Tech, Trump und Rechtspopulisten offen nach autokratischer Macht greift. Über digitale Monopole kontrolliert sie zunehmend die Öffentlichkeit – und damit die Grundlage unserer Demokratien. Mit jedem Tag wird es schwerer, unsere freie Welt noch zu retten. Werden wir das Ruder noch herumreißen?

In this eye-opening book, renowned economist Alex Edmans teaches us how to separate fact from fiction. Using colorful examples—from a wellness guru's tragic but fabricated backstory to the blunders that led to the Deepwater Horizon disaster to the diet that ensnared millions yet hastened its founder's death—Edmans highlights the biases that cause us to mistake statements for facts, facts for data, data for evidence, and evidence for proof.

Following a remarkable epoch of greater dispersion of wealth and opportunity, we are inexorably returning towards a more feudal era marked by greater concentration of wealth and property, reduced upward mobility, demographic stagnation, and increased dogmatism.

The new class structure resembles that of Medieval times.

"Propaganda," penned by Edward Bernays in 1928, delves into the mechanics of shaping public opinion. Bernays, often dubbed the "father of public relations," argues that propaganda is an essential tool for guiding public thought in a democratic society. He outlines strategies for manipulating public perception, drawing from psychological and sociological principles. While his work is credited with pioneering modern public relations, it has also drawn criticism for its potential to be used for manipulation and control.

"Copaganda" is a special kind of propaganda employed by police, prosecutors, and news media. It stokes fear of police-recorded crime and distorts society’s responses to it. As the United States incarcerates five times more people per capita than it did in 1970—despite record low crime rates—a sprawling and profitable punishment bureaucracy spends a lot of time and money to manipulate what we think that bureaucracy does and why.

La digitalizzazione sta da tempo interessando anche la sfera politica e gli sconvolgimenti che produce nel processo democratico e nelle nostre vite sono massicci, epocali. Storditi dalla frenesia della comunicazione a ciclo continuo, ci ritroviamo impotenti di fronte a un sistema che trasforma l'essere umano in una miniera di dati da estrarre. Il nostro modo di pensare e intervenire nel mondo, il nostro rapporto con la verità stanno inesorabilmente cambiando. Siamo apparentemente liberi, ma incapaci di discutere.
