@ARTICLE{Osiński_Zbigniew_Forming_2024, author={Osiński, Zbigniew}, number={No 4}, journal={Nauka}, pages={135-153}, howpublished={online}, year={2024}, publisher={Biuro Upowszechniania i Promocji Nauki PAN}, abstract={The aim of the research described in this article is to find an answer to the question – what image of cancel culture is created on the Internet by people professionally associated with universities – researchers and academic teachers. The literature on the subject lacks not only systematic reviews of the state of cancel culture research, but also analyses of the images of this phenomenon created on the Internet by researchers. Therefore, research was conducted, which consisted of selecting researchers whose publications on cancel culture are indexed in the Scopus and Web of Science databases, or in the Google Scholar search engine, and who have spoken on this topic in the media and websites. Then, those publications were selected in which the authors revealed their attitude to the cancel culture phenomenon, positive or critical. It was determined how this attitude was revealed and what procedures were used by individual scientists to disseminate their views on the Internet. The author concluded that a reader interested in the phenomenon of cancel culture and focused on gaining knowledge from scientists will relatively often come across completely different perceptions of the phenomenon, as well as different descriptions and assessments of it. They may come across both scientific works and journalistic statements by a specific person that will present the phenomenon unequivocally positively or unequivocally negatively. There is basically no such thing as scientific consensus in the case of cancel culture.}, type={Artykuły / Articles}, title={Forming views on the Internet – the case of scientists speaking out about cancel culture}, URL={http://journals.pan.pl/Content/133431/N%23424-06-Osinski.pdf}, doi={10.24425/nauka.2024.152913}, keywords={cancel culture, scientific publications, journalistic activity of researchers, scientific consensus}, }
