Immerse yourself in a fascinating journey into the depths of the digital world, where the boundaries between truth and falsehood blur in the blink of an eye. Max Fisher, an investigative reporter for the "New York Times", unmasks the mechanisms of manipulation and disinformation that have taken over social media. Discover how algorithms control our emotions and how Big Tech giants profit from it, at the expense of the quality of social relationships and the destruction of the public sphere. Are we able to regain control over the media and ourselves?
In his book "In the Modes of Chaos", Max Fisher examines how social media has reprogrammed our minds and our world. The author analyzes how divisions deepen on the web, how hatred and disinformation settle in it. He also examines the social and psychological aspects of our functioning on the Internet, critically assessing the algorithms that control them, which are aimed at absorbing our time. Fisher looks at the hands of the giants of Big Tech, who, under the guise of spreading freedom of speech, increase polarization and derive multi-million dollar profits from the resulting disinformation.
This book is not only an analysis of the problem, but also an attempt to find an answer to the question of how we can regain control over the media and ourselves. Fisher challenges readers to use the knowledge they have gained to change the way we use social media. The author, nominated for the Pulitzer Prize for a series of articles on social media and their impact on social changes, shares his insights and experiences to help us understand how the chaos machine works and how we can defend ourselves against it.
"In the Modes of Chaos" is a must-read for anyone who wants to understand how social media affects our lives and the world. It is a book that forces reflection and action to regain control over our minds and our future. Max Fisher, an investigative reporter and columnist in the foreign affairs section of the "New York Times", comments on global trends in his regular column The Interpreter and shows the contexts of the most important events. He is primarily interested in conflicts in the world, social transformations and international relations.
