Медиакультурные особенности современной Украины
The features of the media culture in modern Ukraine

Summary/Abstract: The paper is devoted to the specificity of the media culture in modern Ukraine, which is discussed on the basis of a political conflict (Euromaidan) assuming the form of an active shaping of a civic society in conformity with European models. The authors of this survey emphasize the geopolitical component of this issue, stress the place, role and importance of both the traditional mass media and the new media, and, by this token, they highlight a number of issues related to the attempts to manipulate the media by the state authorities, and to the actual passivity of the modern Ukrainian authorities as concerns the implementation of European standards in the fields of legislation, law and democracy.
