This contributed volume identifies how the information processes of
public institutions and citizens have changed throughout the
COVID-19 pandemic, within a new context that emerged: the infodemic
disorder. Public debate is largely characterized today by a crisis
of the legitimacy of institutions, accompanied by a crisis of
authority in public communication, leading to the emergency of a
state of information disorder due specifically to the need to find
information related to the coping of the pandemic. This condition
is characterized by growing attention to issues related to 'fake
news', 'misinformation', and 'media manipulation', that are
intertwined in digital platform ecosystems, and the effects of
which on democracy, public communication and research, and the
sharing of information in the civic sphere are broad and
far-reaching. This volume analyzes the links between communication
strategies of public institutions, and the resulting citizen
communication, in an attempt to tease out how communication
processes have changed during the pandemic. It was decided to
investigate this infodemic disorder as it appeared in three
different geographical contexts: Europe, Canada and Mexico and, at
the same time, to bring out the formal and informal coping
strategies implemented by public institutions and citizens.
Beginning with an introduction to the crisis of information created
by the pandemic, the contributors build a theoretical framework,
provide contagion data, and subsequently, for each of the
geographical contexts analyzed, explore the public communication
strategies and those activated by citizens seeking to share
information.
