Resumo

Objetivo: Descreve e analisa as incidências teórico-práticas da informação incorreta (misinformation), desinformação (disinformation) e má informação (malinformation), incluindo, mas não se limitando ao arcabouço da Ciência da Informação. Além disso, objetiva delinear uma compreensão desses três conceitos a partir de 16 arranjos interligados de acordo com sua intencionalidade.

Método: Para construir discursos e descrição do fenômeno da desinformação e suas derivações, aplicamos a hermenêutica, a retórica e os princípios fenomenológicos da intencionalidade como métodos de trabalho.

Resultados: Como resultados, apresentamos 14 incidências teóricas com o objetivo de esclarecer esses três conceitos, além de delinear e caracterizar, de acordo com a intencionalidade, 16 arranjos de desinformação associados a esses três conceitos, sendo eles: viés de confirmação, propaganda, artigos retratados, teorias da conspiração, representação enganosa em mapas, quadros e gráficos, notícias falsas, caça-cliques, trote, sátira ou paródia, website impostor, revisões falsas, phishing, filtros-bolha e câmaras de eco.

Conclusões: Destaca-se a complexidade que permeia os vários campos da conjuntura atual relacionada à dificuldade de um consenso sobre a definição semântica dos conceitos de informação, desinformação e suas desambiguações, uma vez que estes conceitos também possuem inúmeras propriedades
