RECLAIM - Reclaiming Liberal Democracy in the Postfactual Age
Education
RECLAIM is a Horizon Europe funded research project on the impact of disinformation on liberal democracy.
About us
The research project Reclaiming Liberal Democracy in the Postfactual Age (RECLAIM) is a Horizon Europe funded project with the aim of studying the implications of post-truth politics on democracy in Europe. The project is managed by the Institute of International Affairs at the University of Iceland and led by Maximilian Conrad, Professor at the University of Iceland's Faculty of Political Science. The RECLAIM project aims to put forward new definitions, methods and toolkits on how to analyse and respond to various expressions of information disorder on today's democracy. The aim of the project is to analyse disinformation in Europe and use the results to advise on policy making, education and actions to react to the negative effect of disinformation on democratic discourse and the basic structure of modern liberal democracy. The project brings together a highly diverse group of scholars, not only in terms of the disciplines represented, but also in terms of their nationalities, but because of the project’s structure, the different parts of the project will nonetheless create one coherent whole. Thirteen universities and institutes take part in the project in addition to the University of Iceland: Goldsmiths College in the UK; the University in Ljubljana; UAM University in Madrid; Jagiellonian University in Krakow; the University of Victoria in Canada; Scuola Normale Superiore in Florence; New Bulgarian University in Sofia; The Institute of International Affairs in Zagreb; the ARENA Centre for European Studies at the University of Oslo; the Trans European Policy Studies Association (TEPSA) in Brussels; the Institute of International Affairs in Prague; the Institute of International Affairs in Rome, and the Liechtenstein Institute in Bendern.

Interview with PI Maximilian Conrad for the Háskóli Íslands webpage about the challenges facing journalism and its effects on democratic debate.
“We are seeing a trend where journalists are increasingly becoming the target of populist politicians. This has serious impact on the status of journalists and on democratic debate in general, particularly in light of journalism’s key role in holding governments accountable,” says Maximilian Conrad, professor at the University of Iceland’s Faculty of Political Science. The preliminary results of a new study at the University of Iceland show that journalists today live under increasing pressure. The reasons are rooted in the interplay of populism, social media and a changing attitude towards people in the media. Maximilian’s study examines how mass media, as a pillar of democracy, tackle increased violence and distrust in modern society. https://lnkd.in/eFC4JAfD VANTRAUST OG ÁRÁSIR Á BLAÐAMENN AÐ AUKAST „Við sjáum þróun þar sem blaðamenn verða sífellt meira skotspónn popúlískra stjórnmálamanna. Þetta hefur alvarleg áhrif á stöðu blaðamanna og lýðræðislegt samtal í heild sinni, sérstaklega í ljósi þess að fjölmiðlar gegna lykilhlutverki í því að veita stjórnvöldum aðhald,“ segir Maximilian Conrad, prófessor við Stjórnmálafræðideild Háskóla Íslands sem sérhæfir sig í rannsóknum á lýðræði, fjölmiðlum og pólitískri orðræðu í samtímanum. Frumniðurstöður nýrrar rannsóknar hans og samstarfsfólks sýna að blaðamenn í samtímanum búa við vaxandi þrýsting. Ástæðu þess má rekja til samspils popúlisma, samfélagsmiðla og breytts viðhorfs fólks til fjölmiðla. Í rannsókninni er kannað hvernig fjölmiðlar, sem burðarstoð lýðræðis, takast á við auknar árásir og vantraust í nútímasamfélagi og hvernig þeir geta haldið áfram að standa vörð um lýðræðið í samfélagi sem breytist ört. https://lnkd.in/e7ryQmXh
