Professor of Media Studies in Bucharest specializing in the history of propaganda and digital misinformation. I am fascinated by how stories are used to shape public opinion and control narratives. My reading list is dominated by political philosophy, memoirs of dissidents, and contemporary thrillers about the surveillance state. I believe that media literacy is the most important skill in the 21st century. My feed is a professional, analytical space—snapshots of archival news clippings, library sessions, and reviews of books that deconstruct the power of the image and the word. I’m an advocate for freedom of the press and host a weekly podcast on 'The Story of the State.'
