Post-Truth. Contemporary paradigms in framing information

Summary/Abstract: The article underlines the impact of the digital environment in reconfiguring basic notions as the concept of „truth”. A more recent alternative – „post-truth” – is discussed in relation with the dissolution of the binary logic and the rise of a new relativism.
