Poslední úprava: Mgr. Nikola Skladanová (05.01.2023)

This course explores mass persuasion and propaganda in a developmental context with an emphasis on understanding approaches and techniques. It traces the emergence of strategic persuasive communication and propaganda from its origins to the present day. The basic principles, philosophy, and techniques of mass persuasion in different periods are considered, with an emphasis on contemporary contexts. Students will learn to identify different propaganda techniques and will gain the tools to evaluate and debunk propaganda campaigns. A developmental approach is used in order to allow the opportunity to see aspects of continuity and change in approaches. A combination of classic and contemporary texts in the area of propaganda and disinformation will be studied. Various approaches to propaganda will examined across a variety of media, with an emphasis in the second half of the course on emerging computational and participatory propaganda.

UPCES classes are held weekly regardless of any national holidays as opposed to standard CU / FHS classes.

• Students can register for up to 2 UPCES courses (YBAU code) per semester in total.
• Degree students can attend these courses from their second semester onwards.
• For students enrolled at other CU Faculties, the UPCES courses are available only if the course capacity allows (i.e. not all the places are used by the Faculty of Humanities students), thus enrolment cannot be guaranteed in advance; availability to be checked in the SIS when the registration to courses opens.

Please note:

Organized in cooperation with a partner institution, the capacity of this course might be limited.

In order to allow other students to enroll, please, do not forget to deregister from all courses you decide not to take as soon as possible.
