Description
Conspiracy/Theory explores how we build knowledge to address important forms of harm in an era of intensified information warfare. It identifies affinities between conspiracy theory and critical theory, recognizing people's motivations to search for patterns in events and uncover hidden dimensions. The multidisciplinary contributors examine the affects and imaginaries of political mobilization across history and geography, tracking counterrevolutionary projects while acknowledging collective futures that demand conspiratorial engagement. By exploring these dynamics, Conspiracy/Theory sheds light on why so many find themselves living in disorienting realities. This book brings together diverse perspectives to understand the complexities of conspiracy theory and its role in shaping our understanding of politics and reality.
