Trust and Disinformation

Springer, 2026

This volume explores the complex landscape of disinformation and its broader implications on trust within society. It tackles questions such as: What constitutes disinformation or fake news? What are the ramifications of its detrimental effects? Are we navigating through a post-truth era? Which emerging technologies could potentially mitigate or exacerbate the adverse effects of disinformation? What kind of audience trust does disinformation tap into? What kind of effect can it have on trust relationships? How can we effectively address the challenges posed by disinformation? Contributors to this volume investigate these inquiries from diverse, primarily philosophical perspectives, while also incorporating insights from a range of interdisciplinary approaches. Readers will be introduced to a vital and ongoing debate aimed at dissecting the phenomenon of fake news, its consequences, and viable strategies for countering its spread. It invites readers to critically engage with the subject matter, encouraging a deeper comprehension of both the challenges and opportunities presented by the digital age.
