Resumé

I et vidensbaseret demokrati er det vigtigt, at aktuel, pålidelig og relevant viden er tilgængelig i beslutningsprocesser hos myndigheder, regering og Folketing. Relationen mellem forskning, rådgivning og politiske beslutninger er imidlertid ikke altid fredsommelig. På stort set alle politikområder drøftes det, om kvalificeret viden og verificeret information finder vej til de rigtige beslutningstagere eller om borgere, medier og politikere ligger under for misinformation, diskrediteret forskning og anekdotisk evidens. I denne artikel kortlægger forfatterne, hvordan postfaktuelle tendenser i samfundet skal beskrives som et resultat af flere sammenfaldende faktorer samt hvordan vidensinstitutioner, videnskabelig rådgivning og myndighedsbetjening kan være med til at garantere en balanceret fremstilling af forskning og data på områder af relevans for politiske beslutningsprocesser.
