摘要

自2014年大选以来，印度社交媒体上大量的假新闻引发了对印度民主政治传播和政治文化的重大质疑。数字空间中的假新闻深刻地影响了选举进程和公众对公众迫切关注的问题的看法。本文虽然局限于社交媒体假新闻的政治后果，但有意识地将重点转移到假新闻的演变模式及其与该国政治文化的影响上。参考印度政治文化的主流理论，分析了2021-2022年期间流传的290条假新闻的内容。鉴于印度政治文化的特殊性，本文强调了假新闻在印度选举政治中发挥的重要作用。此外，本文还分析了政治假新闻内容的模式——它们所代表的情绪、态度和价值观。

Social media fake news and political culture: patterns, implications and electoral dynamics in India

The profusion of social media fake news in India since the 2014 general election has raised significant questions concerning political communication and the political culture in Indian democracy. The fake news in digital space has profoundly influenced the electoral process and popular perceptions on matters of urgent public attention. This paper, though circumscribed to the political ramifications of social media fake news, consciously shifts the focus to the evolution patterns of fake news and their effects in conjunction with the political culture in the country. The content of 290 fake news stories circulated during 2021-2022 is analysed, referring to the dominant theories of political culture in India. The paper highlights the nontrivial role fake news attains in Indian electoral politics, given the specificities of the political culture in the country. Also, it analyses the patterns of political fake news contents- the moods, attitudes and values- they represent.
