Pedagogies of Post-Truth explores the national and international political developments in what has been called a post-truth society; specifically, in which conservative groups target media outlets claiming fabrication of news and that the veracity of evidence-based reporting should be questioned. Truth has been reduced to the validation of opinions instead of the presentation of scientific facts. This collection responds to these issues by initiating a scholarly dialogue about teaching in the era of post-truth in which research-based findings that do not align with political viewpoints are judged, criticized, and often described as fake. Contributors evaluate the pedagogical challenges of post-truth discourse and how post-truth messages negatively affect instructors and students. By highlighting ways instructors and students can resist the hegemony of post-truth, this book creates a dialogue among scholars, illustrates the challenges, and offers pedagogical techniques to discuss post-truth, the role of the educator, the role of media, and the role of other story-makers of our society.

"Speaking truth to power, Kahl and Atays perfectly timed and much-needed edited collection comprehensively conceptualizes, compellingly critiques, and carefully considers how critical communication pedagogy can contribute to college students capacity to recognize and resist the contemporary post-truth context in which politicians, media personnel, and other parties seek to preserve power and further persecute oppressed populations, by purposefully promoting false/fake facts that prey on people who are persuaded by their emotions and beliefs rather than by factual truths." -- Lawrence R.
