Why are journalists and politicians trusted to tell the truth as
little as estate agents? How can democracy function when everybody
just believes whatever they want? Will we ever return to "normal"?
Written in an engaging and accessible style for a broad audience,
After the Fact? examines how neoliberal and centrist ideologies,
unaccountable technology corporations, corporate and governmental
mendacity, and complacent, shoddy journalism have combined to
produce the political crisis we find ourselves in, and what the
challenges will be if we are to survive it. Using a wide array of
issues and examples - from identity politics to conspiracy theories
to corruption scandals - this book is an entertaining appraisal of
our changing relationship to political truth, taking issue with
standard discourses around "fake news" and "post-truth".
