    Do not trust people: lessons from political economy on how to counter misinformation and lies
    in European View , vol. 15, n. 2, December, special issue "The resistible rise of populism in Europe" ,  2016 ,  253-263
    This article argues that political economy can explain how and why information distribution and opinion formation are changing. Even more importantly, political economy offers us ways to fight the negative effects of misinformation. It is argued that asymmetry of information can explain recent developments and why poor-quality information is capable of competing with good-quality information. Subsequently, the article explains how poor-quality information influences peoples’ decisions through internal decision-making processes.
