Repression Via ""Fighting Fake News : A Study of Four Southeast Asian Autocracies Paperback / softback

Part of the Trends in Southeast Asia series

Paperback / softback

Description

Southeast Asian autocracies of Cambodia, Myanmar, Thailand and Vietnam have politicized vague definitions of "fake news" to justify diverse tactics of digital repression. In these countries, what constitutes falseness in "fake news" has hardly been clearly articulated.

The governments instead focus on the grave threats the dissemination of "fake news" could pose to national security, public disorder or national prestige
