Insect Declines in the Anthropocene: Framing is everything.
Prof. dr. Jeff Harvey (Ecological Science, Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam)
Abstract Governments and corporations often use nefarious but sophisticated methods of manipulating public opinion on issues that are of societal importance. In many instances, they employ propaganda to generate 'consent' for policies that are actually not in the public interest, but which only benefit tiny sectors of society (i.e. the ruling elite). In this lecture I will delve a little into the history of the public relations industry, its various strategies, and how it often defines our lives in numerous ways, and go on to explain how it threatens our future.
