Fall ’23 Book Celebration: Ioana Jucan and ‘Malicious Deceivers’

Celebrate the release of Malicious Deceivers: Thinking Machines and Performative Objects (Stanford University Press) by Ioana Jucan, Assistant Professor of Social and Cultural Inquiry in the Marlboro Institute of Liberal Arts & Interdisciplinary Studies.

In Malicious Deceivers, Jucan traces a genealogy of post-truth intimately tied to globalizing modernity, and connects the production of repeatable fakeness with capitalism and Cartesian metaphysics.
