War for reality: How to win in the world of fakes, truths and communities. Dmytro Kuleba / Ukrainian books in English

This is a guide to survival in the information space, it is about how manipulation and propaganda work and how to protect yourself from fakes and disinformation.

Dmytro Kuleba, the Minister of Foreign Affairs of Ukraine and the author of the book, uses real examples to explain five principles that will help to win in information wars - about relying on reality, critical thinking, managing emotions, a sense of community and interaction with the state. The impetus for writing this book was the annexation of Crimea and the beginning of the war in Ukraine in 2014, in which lies and manipulation became key tools. These principles of protection in hybrid warfare have not changed since 2014, they are the same and even more relevant after a full-scale invasion.

This publication is not only for professional media professionals and communicators, but also for everyone who consumes content on the Internet, who uses social networks and wants to take care of their information hygiene.

Diplomat, permanent representative of Ukraine at the Council of Europe Dmytro Kuleba wrote a book about behavior in the information space, informational self-defense and work with communications in Ukraine. "War for reality: How to win in the world of fakes, truths and communities" is a real guide to protecting personal data, developing critical thinking and countering manipulation in the era of mass internetization and digitalization. Focusing on examples from Ukraine, other countries and the experience of companies, the author analyzed how the war for reality takes place and singled out five rules that will help to win it. The main impetus for writing the book was the annexation of Crimea and the beginning of armed aggression on the part of Russia, because lies and manipulations that are spread with the help of the Internet have become an integral part of this war. And Ukrainian society was not ready to protect its information space.
