    Disinformation in the Middle East

    Special issue of "Open Information Science"

    Similar to other regions around the world, the Middle East has witnessed the widespread of misinformation in relation to different issues like politics, health, and armed conflicts. This is, indeed, not a recent phenomenon as the region has been plagued by infodemics for many decades. Recent reports and data releases by Facebook and Twitter show that there are several systematic and coordinated activities that occur in the Middle East in order to support regional players like Saudi Arabia and the UAE in enhancing their political influence in the region. There is a need to study infodemics in some specific geographical contexts like the Middle East due to the evolving nature of this phenomenon, and this special issue is focused on the examination of recent case studies involving the spread of misinformation and disinformation.

    Ce colloque coordonné par des membres du Centre Jacques Berque (CJB, Rabat) et l’Institut français d’études anatoliennes (IFEA, Istanbul) se propose d’analyser les productions et les circulations transnationales des biens médiatiques dans les mondes arabes et musulmans en vue de structurer un réseau de chercheurs sur ce thème. Les terrains privilégiés par les membres de l’équipe sont des productions médiatiques populaires (au double sens du terme), c’est-à-dire l’information produite par les journalistes, les programmes télévisés et les films de cinéma. Le colloque, qui a reçu une dotation importance du GIS Moyen-Orient et Mondes Musulmans, donnera lieu à une publication CJB-IFEA.
