Textul de pe ultima copertă
Corona as a staged instrument of oppression, covered up vaccination deaths or child-blood-drinking politicians: at the latest since the outbreak of the Covid 19 pandemic, conspiracy ideologies have been booming. These so-called ‘conspiracy theories’ promote the spread of disinformation and generate distrust of legitimate political institutions. In this way, they contribute to the rise of social polarization, populist movements and extremist ideologies.
Conspiracy ideologies have always been a topic in movies and TV series, as they have always dealt with the relationship between reality and illusion, truth and fiction, reality and dream, sense and madness. Through their complex narratives, constellations of characters and aesthetics, TV shows and films offer compelling explanations for the emergence and spread of conspiracy narratives. At the same time, they make suggestions – some of them astonishingly concrete – for dealing with such collective delusions. How can insights from the fictional worlds of TV and films help us to understand and handle the challenges produced by the real contemporary phenomenon of conspiracy ideologies?
