Recenzii
A thorough primer on a complex, modern problem with ancient roots. Propaganda is an excellent resource for anyone who wants to better understand the fight for influence.
— John Hultquist, Chief Analyst, Google Mandiant
Lukasz Olejnik has written a comprehensive, dispassionate and sweeping study of propaganda, one that reflects deeply and eclectically on the nature of modern information technology and how it is woven into society, politics and international relations. He argues persuasively that while propaganda has a long history, it is now possible on an unprecedented scale and with new precision, with implications for state sovereignty, free speech and democracy.
— Shashank Joshi, defense editor, The Economist
Lukasz Olejnik's Propaganda is a treasure trove of information on influence operations ranging from the 17th Century Catholic Church to AI bot armies and everything in between. Appropriately, the book sticks to the facts and provides a historical, technical, geopolitical, and legal perspective but without offering value judgments. Olejnik makes serious and complex subject matter approachable and entertaining.
— Arvind Narayanan, professor of computer science at Princeton University, author of AI Snake Oil:What Artificial Intelligence Can Do, What It Can’t, and How to Tell the Difference
In today's global society, where streams of information flow constantly and easily, distinguishing truth from falsehood is challenging. This book uncovers the subtle games of propaganda, information operations, disinformation and cyber operations, showing how these powerful tools are used to manipulate society. Analyzing the various techniques of propaganda and information operations, the author refers to both historical events and contemporary case studies. Can you tell the difference between real information and fabricated narratives? How do states use propaganda to shape the perception of internal and external visions? Are we vulnerable to the invasion of disinformation in an era of digital chaos? These questions become crucial in the face of today's challenges and technological developments, where the boundaries between fact and fiction are blurring on our screens and in our minds.
— Maj Gen Karol Molenda - first Commander of the Cyberspace Defense Forces of the Polish Armed Forces
Lukasz Olejnik's new book offers an invaluable categorization—and dissection—of propaganda in an age of information warfare. Packed full of both technical detail and historical context, Olejnik deepens and expands our understanding of how propaganda can work. From online trolling to psychological deception, one of Europe's premier experts shows the dangers emerging from authoritarian aggressors and offers ways to counter them. For anyone interested in the battlefields of the 21st century, this book is essential reading.
