Recenzii
A persuasive new book on disinformation as a geopolitical strategy.
How to Lose the Information War is required reading to understand the shape of the 2020s. It's a window into a reality we all kind of sensed, but lacked words or understanding to really process.
[Nina Jankowicz's] suggested tactics to help win the information war are thought provoking; it's a complex and difficult path forward but one vital to preserve democracy and truth itself.
[How to Lose the Information War] offers an excellent guide on the [information warfare] lessons that should have been learned from our European partners provides a pathway forward.
If there is just one point to glean from Nina Jankowicz's How to Lose the Information War, it is this: The threats that disinformation campaigns present democracies do not occur in a vacuum. The intentionally false or distorted information flowing out of places like Russia and China, and aimed at nations from North America to Africa to Europe, is part of a larger effort to prey upon divisions, especially within democratic societies. For that reason, whatever strategy a nation employs to counter bots, trolls, and outright lies must go together with a robust civic renewal effort. Otherwise, the Woodrow Wilson Center scholar writes, democracies will play a never-ending game of whack-a-mole.
An important introduction to the topic [of Russian interference].
An elegant, straightforward and fluent account of the most serious challenge that the liberal democratic order has had to face in at least two generations.
Timely, exceptionally well organized and presented, How to Lose the Information War is an impressively formed and informative read. An extraordinary work of meticulous research.
"As a journalist who has spent years covering the complex issue of information warfare I can confidently say that this book is a must-read for our age. This outstanding work forensically details and analyses the past decade-plus of Russia's influence operations and their inexorable spread to the United States. The Kremlin's threat is an urgent one and we are in desperate need of more authors like Jankowicz. Her expertise is grounded in an intimate knowledge of information warfare that only those who have experienced it firsthand can claim, and this book is, accordingly, an exceptional achievement."
At this moment of economic and political crisis, as disinformation spirals out of control, Nina Jankowicz take a closer look at how different countries have sought to cope with the onslaught. She takes us to the front lines of the information war, offering a clear and accessible account of what's been tried, what works and what doesn't.
In this wide-ranging and sobering account of Russian information operations in Europe and the United States, Nina Jankowicz sounds a clear warning: unless politicians reassess their campaign tactics and seek to diminish, rather than exacerbate, the fissures that exist within their own societies, the West will remain vulnerable to domestic and foreign groups seeking to undermine democracy.
Nina Jankowicz has written an essential account of the contemporary information war waged by Russia. Read to the end, because after a deep analysis of key case studies, she wisely eschews simple solutions, knowing that disinformation is not merely about Russian operations or online platform rules but also about the resilience of democratic institutions themselves.
Jankowicz's book comes out at a really apt and important time. Information and data-based opinions are extremely important at this time and this book is well worth reading, particularly as it is impacting on all of our lives.
Exactly the perspective needed to highlight the high stakes and growing threat of disinformation. Reading How to Lose the Information War is beneficial not only to those in the national security community, but also to all citizens seeking to understand their information environment. Strong media literacy, as Jankowicz concludes, is crucial to a healthy democracy and is the first and most important step to winning the information war.
