Digital Dictators by Ilan Berman
The 2016 elections in the United States exposed a massive campaign of subversion and interference carried out by Russia and aimed at undermining the inner workings of American democracy. But that disinformation offensive represents just one part of a larger challenge now confronting the United States - the weaponization of news and views, both real and fabricated, by repressive regimes and radical non-state actors in order to advance their strategic objectives. In this volume, leading scholars and experts chart the rise of this authoritarian media phenomenon and explore its implications for U.S. foreign policy and America's standing in the world.
Ilan Berman is Senior Vice President of the American Foreign Policy Council in Washington, DC. An expert on regional security in the Middle East, Central Asia, and the Russian Federation, he has consulted for both the U.S. Central Intelligence Agency and the U.S. Department of Defense, and provided assistance on foreign policy and national security issues to a range of governmental agencies and congressional offices. Mr.Berman is also a member of the Associated Faculty at Missouri State University’s Department of Defense and Strategic Studies. He holds a M.A. in International Politics from the American University in Washington, DC, and a Juris Doctorate from the Washington College of Law.
