The contemporary world is flooded with social media feeds ranging from cookie recipes to conspiracy theories, the immensely powerful and yet invisible algorithms, and the capacity of an emerging generative AI to spread lies, fabricated images and videos. Could source criticism, a method once developed in history studies, be the solution to the many challenges faced by the society?
The book Källkritik: människor, teknik och samhälle addresses the above challenges. It provides a broader understanding that also includes a discussion of the important role of trust in a politically turbulent time and how information is actually found.
