Annalee Newitz (“Stories Are Weapons”) and Peter Pomerantsev (“How to Win an Information War”) share how psychological operations and coercive storytelling that were once deployed against foreign adversaries in wartime now affect our current geopolitical climate and shape our present-day culture wars. The authors discussed their work with Roswell Encina at the 2024 Library of Congress National Book Festival in Washington, D.C.
