In this edited volume, contributors explore the various threats—both security- and (dis)information-related—that are present within the European digital environment, along with the subsequent regulations imposed across the region in response to these threats.

Due to the fluctuating evolution of EU-wide and national regulatory approaches to the digital sphere and the differences in each approach, it is crucial to examine the current state of that regulation on both levels to better understand each approach and its consequences. Thus, contributors analyze these phenomena from both European and national perspectives to identify best and unsuccessful practices.

The volume is divided into four sections – first, it maps threats and trust around disinformation in the European digital environment. The second part goes on to identify examples of successful approaches to these threats and to combatting disinformation, while the third section focuses on regulations that have been put in place by specific countries or the EU as a whole. Finally, the fourth section of the book identifies current and ongoing challenges relating to disinformation in the European digital environment, providing practical suggestions and directions for future research in this area.

An essential guide to understanding the digital threats shaping Europe’s future. Threats, Disinformation, and Regulations in the European Digital Environment: The Inseparable Issues brings together leading scholars to unpack one of today’s most urgent challenges: how to defend democracy, media freedom, and social cohesion in an era of disinformation. Covering case studies from across the Europe the book examines the sophisticated tactics of disinformation actors, the vulnerabilities in national and EU regulatory frameworks, and the innovative strategies being deployed to build resilience. Edited by Katerina Turková and Veronika Macková, this volume offers a fruitful combination of research, legal insight, and practical recommendations and is indispensable for policymakers, journalists, researchers, and engaged citizens determined to protect the integrity of the European digital space. * Ján Višnovský, Professor of Media Studies, University of Ss. Cyril and Methodius in Trnava, Slovakia * This publication is a comprehensive account of the dilemmas facing institutions and professionals engaged in combat against disinformation. It provides an account of the legal framework, as well as limitations in its application, related to the preservation of fundamental rights such as freedom of expression. The unique value of this book is in the variety of case studies, coming from a broad range of European media and political contexts, both East- and West European. This book is essential reading for professionals (journalists, policy-makers) interested in preserving the quality of the infosphere. * Michal Wenzel, Professor of Sociology, SWPS University in Warsaw, Poland *
