Abstrakt:

The present article deals with the development of society in terms of how information is perceived and in terms of how society deals with the problematic of information overload. The aim of the study is to highlight the importance of the link between a democratic society and the information literacy of the individuals making up the society. In the article, the development of the society was realized from the stage of knowledge-oriented society to the information society, which overlaps with the present. At this point, the article, through small case study dealing with information chaos during coronacrisis, highlights current phenomena that demonstrate the link between the inappropriate processing of information and the decline of democracy. We assume that an information literate individual is one of the fundamental building blocks of a democratic system.
