ArgumentThis conference investigates the complex interconnection between truth, the web, democracy and the contemporary global equilibrium.How have the processes of validation of truth - and the very notion of truth - changed in the era of the multiplication of voices and public discourses, i.e. in the era of the web? How does this bear upon democracy? On the one hand, the web seems to constitute a resource of democratic participation; on the other hand, the web can turn truth into post-truth thereby arguably favoring demagogy instead of democracy. Because of this ambivalence, the web poses a challenge to scholars, namely rethinking democracy in its connection with truth and technology.ProgrammeMorning session9h15 Opening9h30 Maurizio Ferraris, Post-Modern, Post-Truth, New Realism10h15 John R.
