*NEW BOOK ANNOUNCEMENT*

*/DISINFORMATION IN THE GLOBAL SOUTH, /edited by Herman Wasserman and 
Dani Madrid-Morales (Wiley-Blackwell)*

*ISBN 978-1-119-71444-6 | Paperback | $59.95*

A unique and geographically diverse collection of perspectives on the 
phenomenon of disinformation as it manifests in the Global South.

In many parts of the Global South, coordinated political disinformation 
campaigns, rumor, and propaganda have long been a part of the social 
fabric, even before disinformation has become an area of scholarship in 
the Global North. The way disinformation manifests in this region, and 
responses to it, can therefore be highly instructive for readers around 
the world.

Through case studies and comparative analyses, the book explores the 
impact of disinformation in Africa, Latin America, the Arab World and 
Asia. The chapters in this book discuss the similarities and differences 
of disinformation in different regions and provide a broad thematic 
overview of the phenomenon as it manifests across the Global South.

A valuable resource for scholars of disinformation everywhere, as well 
as senior undergraduate and graduate students in courses covering 
transnational or global perspectives to communication studies, 
/Disinformation in the Global South/ is also an idea reference for 
anyone studying or working in media or journalism.
