Abstract

Conspiracy theories have become a ubiquitous element of the political and popular culture of contemporary human society in recent years. Theories explaining “how it really is (was)”, “who is (was) behind it”, “in whose interest it is happening (happened)” and so on have become popular all over the world. Considering their global spread and the persistence of many of them in society, it is not surprising that conspiracy theories have become the subject of scientific interest not only for historians, sociologists, psychologists, or anthropologists, but also for representatives from other scientific fields – for example political science, philosophy, cultural studies, or mass media studies – and the subject of several scientific researches and works in recent years. This is also why the primary goal of the author of the study – using relevant scientific methods within the framework of the conducted qualitative theoretical interdisciplinary scientific research and based on the works of renowned foreign and domestic authors – is to contribute to the academic discussion and deepening of theoretical knowledge about conspiracy theories.
