    الوصف: The article will present the main assumptions of the information marker method, which can be used for recognizing the characteristics of conspiracy theories conveyed in the content of informational messages – texts, statements, recordings, etc. The proposed method draws on the conspiracy thinking model CONSPIR (Lewandowsky & Cook 2020) and has a practical component. However, the technique presented in the paper constitutes a modification and addition to the original proposal. First, it deals with a problem frame that is different from that of CONSPIR, since it is applied to formulated information messages. Hence the marker method is not an instrument for analyzing cognitive attitudes or patterns of conspiracy thinking. Secondly, the proposed tool is profiled in terms of content focused on scientific issues (mainly pertaining to the natural and applied sciences). Third, given the characteristics and structure of the communication under consideration, I replace the widely used term “conspiracy theory” with the more universal concept of “conspiracy narrative,” which seems to reflect more adequately the specific features of such information messages. Fourth, given the more specific purpose of the marker method compared to that of the CONSPIR model, I will try (where possible) to refrain from citing specific examples of conspiracy narratives, referring to singular events and personal examples. Consequently, to use a phrase widely used in methodology, the presented technique can be applied to all cases of a given type.

    الوصف: In jüngster Zeit beziehen sich Querfrontkonzepte weniger nur auf organisationsbezogene Überlegungen, sondern werden als Teil einer rechtspopulistischen Mobilisierungsstrategie der 'hart arbeitenden normalen Leute' gegen die 'korrupten internationalen' Eliten formuliert. Anhand der derzeit wichtigsten deutschen Publikumszeitschrift der extremen Rechten, dem monatlich erscheinenden Magazin Compact und dessen Umfeld, werden in diesem Beitrag Themen, Feindbilder und Anknüpfungspunkte eines nationalen "Volkssozialismus" (Elsässer) von rechts genauer analysiert. Hier greift die Querfront als breitenwirksame Strategie kaum mehr zu "Entwendungen aus der Kommune" (Ernst Bloch), sondern schließt eher an formlos fließende Ressentiments gegen 'die da oben' an. Dazu zählt nicht nur eine Machtkritik, die auf Verschwörungsdenken aufbaut, sondern auch ein unzulänglicher Begriff von Antifaschismus, der die überwältigende Mehrheit des 'Volks' von jeder Beteiligung an der Naziherrschaft freispricht, dafür aber heute die Ukraine und ihre Verbündeten in die Position des Aggressors rückt. ; More recently, cross-front concepts have been less related to organizational considerations alone, but have been formulated as part of a right-wing populist mobilization strategy of 'hard-working ordinary people' against the 'corrupt international' elites. Based on the currently most important German popular magazine of the extreme right, the monthly journal Compact, and its environment, this article analyses in more detail the themes, enemy images and connection points of a national 'Volkssozialismus' (people's socialism) (Elsässer) from the right. Here, the cross front, as a broadly effective strategy, hardly resorts anymore to "withdrawals from communism" (Ernst Bloch), but rather connects to informally flowing resentment against 'those up there'. This includes not only a critique of power based on conspiracy thinking, but also a deficient concept of anti-fascism that absolves the overwhelming majority of the 'people' of any participation in ...

    الوصف: The belief in conspiracy narratives and the concept of conspiracy mentality have gained increasing attention in psychological science over the last years. A cornerstone is the assumption of secretly acting groups pulling the strings in world affairs. Based on the reasoning that religiosity and conspiracy mentality share a common core – both can be understood as strong convictions without final proof or even in the face of contradictory evidence – we hypothesised that the support of COVID-19 conspiracy narratives would be related to religiosity as well as conspiracy mentality. Given that religious socialisation usually starts very early in life, we furthermore assumed that religiosity could be an antecedent of conspiracy mentality. Therefore, we tested a mediation model comprising religiosity (predictor), support of conspiracy narratives (criterion), and conspiracy mentality (mediator) among N = 616 participants of an online survey. Analyses revealed significant total and indirect effects, supporting our hypothesis.

    الوصف: El objetivo de este trabajo es analizar las narrativas, verificaciones y desmentidos recogidos por los principales fact-checkers de españoles durante el primer año de pandemia. La muestra utilizada recoge 50 verificaciones publicadas en la base de datos de LatamChequea que fueron calificadas como bulo o falsas y que llevaban una etiqueta que las relacionaba con el origen del coronavirus. Estas verificaciones fueron realizadas por las organizaciones españolas de fact-checking Maldita, Newtral, Efe Verifica y AFP entre enero de 2020 y marzo de 2021. La presente investigación encontró un rasgo paradigmático de creciente interés en las investigaciones sociales: el sesgo de género y la autoridad percibida. La investigación también analizó rasgos orgánicos como el factor geográfico, palabras clave, narrativa o estructura, etc., para después proponer una tipología de desinformaciones. ; The aim of this study is to analyze the narratives, verifications and debunks collected by the main fact-checkers in Spain during the first year of the pandemic.The sample used includes 50 verifications published in the LatamChequea database that were classified as hoaxes or false information and that carried a label that related them to the origin of the coronavirus. These verifications were carried out bythe Spanish fact-checking organizations Maldita, Newtral, Efe Verifica and AFP between January 2020 and March 2021.This research found a paradigmatic feature of growing interest in social research: gender bias and perceived authority. Beyond gender issues, this research studied more organicfeatures such as keywords, narrative or structure, etc., with the aim to propose a typology of disinformations related to the origin of Covid-19.

    الوصف: Global crises provide a fertile environment for the proliferation of disinformation and conspiracy narratives that feed on the people’s distrust of institutions. We investigate perceptions and beliefs related to COVID-19 in Romania during the lockdown and the state of alert (April and July 2020) using survey data. Building on measures tested in previous research, we identify the public’s vulnerability to conspiracy narratives and its willingness to comply with public health guidance. We test whether individuals exhibiting pro-Russian or anti-Western attitudes believe more strongly in COVID-19 conspiracy narratives compared to the rest of the population. Then, we check if those believing conspiracy narratives are less susceptible to comply with public health recommendations. We find an indirect relationship between distrusting Western actors and noncompliance with COVID-19 guidelines. Thus, pro-Russian and anti-EU, U.S. and NATO attitudes are linked to stronger conspiracy beliefs, which relate to lower levels of concern and knowledge regarding the virus, which in turn are associated with reduced compliance with official guidelines. This suggests that openness to anti-Western narratives may have behavioral consequences. The findings highlight potential sources of unsafe behaviors during the pandemic, especially in the young democracies of Eastern Europe.

    الوصف: Conspiracy thinking has a long history in Romanian literary culture. In the early 21st century, what counts as a conspiracy theory in the mainstream of Romanian life is nevertheless elusive enough to keep the public engaged more than ever before. The growing number of attempts to address the gap in knowledge with regard to local conspiracy theories is proof that concern with their possibly harmful consequences is on the rise as well. For most of the conspiracy-minded, the topics of the day are specific threats posed to post-communist Romania and its people. In the main, conspiratorial beliefs fall into three main fields. Namely, they come across as 1) conspiracy theories against the body politic of the nation, 2) health-related conspiracy theories and 3) conspiracy theories on use and conservation of natural resources. While the first two overlap and build on the tradition of home-grown populism, the third is mostly a borrowing from Western media sources. However, the most influential instances of Romanian conspiracism posit that the well-being of the nation’s body politic and that of individuals’ own bodies are one and the same.

    الوصف: Artykuł ma trzy płaszczyzny: metodologiczną, teoretyczną i empiryczną. Punktem wyjścia do refleksji metodologicznej jest charakterystyka trzech głównych nurtów badawczych prowadzonych w ramach dynamicznie rozwijających się interdyscyplinarnych badań nad teoriami spiskowymi. Na takim tle omówiona jest analiza zawartości treści jako metoda badawcza pozwalająca w innowacyjny sposób uchwycić kluczowe zjawisko. W części teoretycznej przybliżona jest koncepcja narracji spiskowych w odniesieniu do potocznego rozumienia teorii spiskowych. Głównym celem części empirycznej jest określenie w jakim stopniu media są nasycone różnego rodzaju narracjami spiskowymi. Analiza obejmuje ponad 200 artykułów z dwóch opiniotwórczych tygodników ("Sieci" i polska edycja "Newsweeka"), które znajdują się po dwóch stronach politycznego konfliktu w Polsce spolaryzowanych między innymi przez spiskowe podejrzenia dotyczące katastrofy prezydenckiego samolotu w 2010 roku w Rosji. ; The article has three dimensions: methodological, theoretical, and empirical. A point of departure for the methodological remarks is a characterization of the three main approaches in the vibrant interdisciplinary research field dealing with the phenomenon of conspiracy theories. In this context, the content analysis method is discussed as a promising approach to gain new data on conspiracy narratives. On the theoretical level, the concept of conspiracy narratives is discussed in reference to the popular understanding of the conspiracy theory. The main aim of the empirical part is determining to what extent the media are saturated with different kinds of conspiracy narratives. The analysis covers over 200 articles from two popular Polish news magazines (Sieci and the Polish edition of Newsweek) which occupy positions on opposite sides of the political divide in a society polarized, inter alia, by a conspiratorial suspicion that in 2010 an airplane carrying President Lech Kaczyński on board was deliberately crashed in Russia.
