Mark Fenster, a University of Florida law professor and expert on conspiracy theories, will visit the Hive for a chat with Prime members today at 2PM Eastern.
Fenster, the author of Conspiracy Theories: Secrecy and Power in American Culture, studies how and why conspiracy theories circulate and the effects that they have on culture and politics. He’s also working on a forthcoming book on government secrecy, which asks why are we never satisfied with the amount of information the government discloses.
He’ll be stopping by to answer Prime members’ questions about his research and the conspiracy theories currently bubbling away on the fringes of the American political sphere.
