牛津词典日前公布“2016年度英文词汇”为“后真相”(Posttruth),意指“相对于情感及个人信念,客观事实对形成民意只有相对小的影响。”后真相“的初始含义是指”当真相被披露后“。美国《国家》杂志1992年在一篇针对海湾战争的文童中使用该词,并赋予”惰绪的影响力超过事实“的语义,此后这一含义成为主流。比如,美国《纽约时报》网站今年8月发表伦敦大学戈德史密斯学院政治经济学教授威廉·戴维斯题为《后真相政治时代》的 The Oxford Dictionary recently published ”Posttruth“ as ”Posttruth“ in 2016, meaning ”there is only a relatively small effect of objective facts on the formation of public opinion as opposed to feelings and personal beliefs.“ ”The initial implication was that“ after the truth was disclosed, ”the U.S. magazine“ Country ”used the term in a 1992 version of the“ war on the Gulf ”and gave “ the influence of inertia over facts ” For example, the New York Times website published in August this year, William Davies, professor of political economy at Goldsmiths College, University of London, entitled “post-truth politics era.”
