The Fallacies of the Posttruth: From the Complexity and the Transdisciplinarity

Abstract

In this article, the nuclear objective is to analyze the category of post-truth, starting from the conditions of production, circulation and reception that allowed its impact and its wide diffusion in the different cognitive fields and in the mass media of communication. Secondly, we address the problems of truth in various types of discourse and semiotics, since this topic always produces multiple gordian knots. Thirdly, we define the post-truth with its main characteristics and relate it to the ethical, the political, and other fields.
