We are said to live in the post-truth age, when «objective facts are less influential in shaping public opinion than appeals to emotion and personal belief»[1]. The communicative paradigm has changed: Internet and mass information channels enable fake news to travel – instantaneously – through the web, impregnating our collective thinking and public debate. As it turns out, the disinformation generated by fake news may vitiate the process of public opinion formation and hence, the legitimation mechanisms of democratic institutions. The scale of the phenomenon has raised concerns among public authorities worldwide and we are starting to see the first regulatory proposals to face what has become one of the major legal challenges of our time. This article aims to paint – full colour – the mosaic of ‘information disorders’[2] and emerging possibilities for action.

It can be found at: https://rm.coe.int/information-disorder-toward-an-interdisciplinary-framework-for-researc/168076277cSe dice que vivimos en la era de la posverdad; «la emoción determina la percepción de la realidad social, con mayor capacidad de influencia que los hechos y las pruebas contrastadas»[1]. Ha cambiado el paradigma comunicativo: Internet y los canales de difusión masiva hacen posible el viaje –instantáneo– de las noticias falsas a través de la red, empapando nuestro imaginario colectivo y el debate público. Y es que, la desinformación que generan las fake news puede llegar a adulterar el proceso de formación de la opinión pública y, en consecuencia, los mecanismos de legitimación de las instituciones democráticas. La magnitud del fenómeno ha despertado la preocupación de los poderes públicos a nivel mundial y comenzamos a ver las primeras propuestas de regulación para hacer frente al que se ha convertido en uno de los principales retos jurídicos de nuestro tiempo. El presente artículo tiene el objetivo de dibujar –a todo color– el mosaico de los desórdenes informativos[2] y las incipientes posibilidades de actuación. [1] Definición de posverdad –post-truth– palabra del año 2016, según el prestigioso Diccionario de Oxford. En ingles: «relating to or denoting circumstances in which objective facts are less influential in shaping public opinion than appeals to emotion and personal belief».
