The weapon of criticism cannot, of course, replace criticism of the weapon, material force must be overthrown by material force; but theory also becomes a material force as soon as it has gripped the masses.
Marx, A Contribution to the Critique of Hegel’s Philosophy of Right (1844)
A newspaper is not only a collective propagandist and collective agitator, but also a collective organiser.
Lenin, Where To Begin (1901)

Information is not entropy, information is not
uncertainty!
Thomas D. Schneider
Information is a measure of the decrease of
uncertainty.
Claude Shannon
Information is information, not matter or energy.
Norbert Wiener
Society in the information field

The vertical
(centralized)
flows of
information
influence
Horizontal
(interpersonal,
networking)
flows of
information
influence
The combination of these flows determines the dynamics of
information dissemination in society
Conceptual framework
Sociological argument about information
dissemination through mass-media and
interpersonal communication

The Rwandan genocide, known officially as the genocide against the Tutsi, was a genocidal mass slaughter of Tutsi in Rwanda by members of the Hutu majority government.
Empirical facts: The broadcasts increased militia violence not only directly by
influencing behavior in villages with radio reception, but also indirectly by increasing participation in neighboring villages.
Spillovers are estimated to have caused more militia violence than the direct effects.

Propaganda and conflict: evidence from the Rwandan Genocide» (2014))

• L,B - feed braking elements
• S – external incentives
• R - reaction
• ε, j – generated incentives
• w - internal incentives
(Rashevsky N., 1933)
A model of making choices by
individuals during information warfare
in a society
19
(Petrov A.P., Maslov A.I., Tsaplin N.A., 2015)
X(t) – the number of first party
ϕ – internal propensity for response selection
N(ϕ) – distribution of individuals
N0 – size of society
ψ - shift of incentives (defined social environment) toward
the first party support
b1 и b2 - propaganda first and second party, respectively

Sociological sense: •society is divided into two groups, each of which has
a propensity to support "their" party
•d parameter characterizes the degree of social
polarization (how radical is each group)
•h parameter characterizes the degree of
fragmentation of each group
Equilibrium states
Consider a case
There are from 1 to 5 equilibrium states
(depending on initial conditions)
Stable equilibrium states:
21
o 1 – party 2 wins
o 3 – draw
o 5 – party 1 wins
