The information we receive depends increasingly on algorithms, social media and communities that share their own versions of reality. The abundance of information does not necessarily make us better informed: it also encourages the circulation of fake news and narratives designed to confirm what we already believe. The French sociologist Gerald Bronner, one of the leading researchers into the effects of the digital environment on the way we obtain information, and the international analyst Farid Kahhat (Peru) will discuss with Benjamín Carrasco how the truths that reach the public sphere are constructed today, what role propaganda plays, and what consequences all this has for democracy.
