Dissemination of disinformation in the Czech Republic: Social changes and changes of identity of Ukrainian regufees

This thesis deals with disinformation narratives related to the armed conflict in Ukraine, their dissemination, and their impact on society. The theoretical part focuses on the concept of disinformation, the motivations of its disseminators, and the various forms in which it appears. The thesis also shows what content is spread through digital media and what impact it has on Ukrainians living in the Czech Republic. The aim of the thesis is to determine how disinformation influences people's attitudes and values in crisis situations and whether it can lead to the creation of new narratives and symbols that shape cultural identities. The practical part is based on qualitative research with Ukrainian refugees, which included semi-structured interviews and content analysis of the most widely used news media, disinformation websites, and fake news encountered by the respondents.
