*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.
