This paper offers a conceptual reconstruction of the regime of disinformation within Information Science. Drawing on the concept of regime of information and on its reinterpretation through the political economy of information, it understands disinformation as an internal configuration of the contemporary informational regime. The research is qualitative and theoretical-conceptual, based on bibliographic review and conceptual reconstruction. It argues that disinformation goes beyond false content and becomes a mechanism for value production, redistribution of social trust, and reorganization of the criteria of truth, legitimacy, and political attachment. On digital platforms, profitability and the capture of attention favor narratives capable of producing plausibility and making ideas previously seen as extreme or indefensible appear acceptable. In this sense, the regime of disinformation can be understood as a form of political management: a way of governing the field of the possible.
