Humor i kris: Att använda digitala forskningsmetoder för att undersöka desinformationsspridning, socioteknik och nya plattformar
Samhällsvetenskapligt metodcentrum bjuder tillsammans med seminarieserien ”Allmänna seminariet” vid Sociologiska institutionen in Moa Eriksson Krutrök, universitetslektor vid Umeå universitet, för att hålla ett seminarium om användandet av digitala metoder för att studera spridning av desinformation, socioteknik och nya plattformar.
Seminariet hålls på engelska. Ingen anmälan behövs till detta seminarium.
In a time marked by overlapping social, political, economic, and ecological crises, the rapid spread of disinformation on digital platforms poses a significant threat to democratic institutions. The convergence of these crises challenges societies' resilience, making it crucial to understand the mechanisms by which disinformation spreads and influences public perception. In Moa Eriksson Krutrök's (Ph.D. and docent in Sociology) research on societal crises, information dissemination, and digital platforms, the role of humor has gained increasing focus, with meme cultures, humorous tones, and multimodality contributing in various ways. In this presentation, she will present her ongoing research, methodological approaches within digital Sociology, and upcoming research within the framework of the project Postdigital Propaganda, funded by the Swedish Research Council (VR).
Welcome to attend!
