Conflicts Over Conspiracy Theories
Understanding Conspiracy Theories In Europeconspiracy Theories Have Become A Divisive Subject. Both Governments And Ngos Are Engaged In Efforts To Prevent And Counteract Them. The Erc-Funded Conspirations Project Will Examine The Escalating Tensions Surrounding Conspiracy Theories In Europe. This Endeavour Goes Beyond The Conventional Analysis Focused On The Perspectives Of Conspiracy Theorists, Also Delving Into The Viewpoints Of Those Who Uphold The Truth. The Project Will Involve In-Depth Ethnographic Case Studies Across Europe (Belgium, Bulgaria, Germany, Estonia, Poland, Sweden) And Within Eu Institutions. It Will Also Broaden Its Scope To Investigate Conflicts Arising From Conspiracy Theories, Exploring The Intriguing Possibility That These Are Interconnected. Ultimately, The Project Will Provide A Profound Comprehension Of These Conflicts, Their Sociocultural Backgrounds And Their Emergence Within The Varied European Contexts.
