Information security is vital for national security, especiallyduring martial law. The influential role of the media in the socio-political landscape of Ukraine underscores the need to studyits impact on the system of public management of informationsecurity. This research aims to identify the extent and directionsof such impact, using statistical analysis and comparative lawmethodology. The findings reveal information security challengesrelated to social media in Ukraine, such as distorted information,manipulation, propaganda, imperfect regulation and subordination ofmedia to the interests of their owners. International experiences suggestaddressing these problems by promoting digital literacy, facilitating faircompetition and fostering relations between the state, media and citizens.By way of conclusion, the significant influence of the media on publicopinion and political processes is confirmed, with both positive (coverageof important information) and negative (misinformation, manipulation)aspects in the system of public management of information security.

The authors have set themselves the goal of analyzing the mass media and coverage of terrorist attacks on the Internet, to assess their impact on the growing number of terrorists in the world based on this analysis. The methodological basis of this research is represented by the comprehensive approach, which allowed identifying and corroborating the need to restructure the media and the Internet to combat modern terrorism. The epistemological potential of the statistical and sociological methods used within quantitative and qualitative research makes it possible to properly interpret the results of scientific research devoted to the subject of analysis. The results suggest that current activity by the media and Internet users encourages the growth in the number of terrorist acts in the world and improves the efficiency of recruiting newcomers to terrorist organizations. Furthermore, optimal ways of restructuring social media and expanding the scope of control of the operation of the Internet without violating freedom of expression and the right of citizens to free access to information are discussed.

From a documentary perspective the article addresses issues such as the collapse of the Soviet Union, separatism in the USSR and the existence of similar destructive processes in modern Russia. Special attention is paid to the role of the media in the collapse of the USSR. The goal was to find out whether the collapse of the Soviet Union and the rise of New Russia were inevitable. Consequently, the additional objectives of the article are to identify the main reasons for the collapse of the USSR, to draw an analogy with the situation in modern Russia, to analyze propaganda techniques by examining the Moscow News newspaper, and to study and generalize the main problems of inter-ethnic dialogue in the Soviet and post-Soviet space. The relevance of the topic is justified by the lack of a unified view in the community of experts on the causes and consequences of the collapse of the USSR, as well as by the lack of a unified assessment of the period of Perestroika and the inevitability of the transition from socialism to capitalism in Russia. It is concluded that in the geopolitical phenomenon of the collapse of the USSR occupies a special role the national and international media dimension.

En el presente artículo se evalúa la actuación de las autoridades electorales en México durante las campañas presidenciales de 2012 en lo referente a la garantía del derecho a la información de los ciudadanos. Por medio de una revisión teórica de los conceptos de libertad de expresión y derecho a la información, se argumenta a favor de la necesaria complementariedad e interdependencia entre ambos conceptos. Se explora la manera en que las autoridades electorales abordaron el tema de la libertad de expresión en tres ámbitos de acción: la emisión de "sugerencias de lineamientos" para la cobertura de las campañas electorales por las empresas de radio y televisión; el monitoreo de la cobertura de las campañas en los noticieros de radio y televisión; y la organización y promoción de debates electorales entre los candidatos a la Presidencia de la República. Esta revisión revela que existe una importante contradicción entre la teoría y la práctica del IFE y el TEPJF. Se concluye con algunas reflexiones generales sobre la libertad de expresión y el papel de los órganos electorales en la política mexicana a la vez que se proponen algunas reformas que podrían fortalecer la libertad de expresión y el derecho a la información de los ciudadanos durante los próximos ejercicios electorales.

La presente exposición quiere ser una reflexión sobre los vicios y las virtudes del periodismo con relación a los asuntos étnicos. Los medios de información del continente latinoamericano han desarrollado una visión "colonial" y hegemónica del problema, creando una meta-realidad excluyente que ha imposibilitado el desarrollo de relaciones pacificas hacia las comunidades indígenas de sus diferentes países. Esta meta-realidad se quiere sencilla y, por esta razón, los medios masivos se apoyan en la construcción de experiencias estereotipadas, sin complejidades. Sin embargo, es posible una visión optimista de la cuestión (que comparte la perspectiva de Antonio Negri acerca de las "grietas" del Imperio), mirando a las posibilidades que ofrece el periodismo comprometido para la paz.

Este artículo pretende presentar de manera concisa la sociología de los mass media de Niklas Luhmann. El gran sociólogo alemán quiso realizar con ella un análisis enraizado en su teoría general de la sociedad moderna, a fin de superar el nivel preponderantemente descriptivo de las investigaciones sociales sobre los media. La tesis principal de Luhmann es que los mass media construyen la realidad con la que puede operar un sistema tan complejo como es nuestra sociedad. Al hacer esto asumen la importante función de absorber la incertidumbre (social) acerca de qué y cómo es el mundo. Desentrañar la realidad (social) de esa construcción, en consecuencia, era también tarea fundamental de esta sociología.

The framework of linguistic intergroup bias is used to understand the interplay language use & cognitive biases in political conflicts. The hypothesis that desirable ingroup & undesirable outgroup behaviors are described in more abstract terms than undesirable ingroup behavior & desirable outgroup behavior was tested using G. Semin & K. Fiedler's (1988) categorical linguistic model in two studies of political conflict. In the first, 123 subjects from two opposing social movements -- 63 from Coordination de Gesto por la Paz(Coordinated Action for Peace [CGP]) & 60 from Herri Batasuna (supporting Basque independence) -- described the behaviors of models pictured wearing either CGP or Basque independence symbols. In the second study, the descriptions of victim & aggressor in a nationalist & nonnationalist murder in editorials of two nationalist -- Elgin & Deia -- & two nonnationalist -- Diario Vasco & ABC -- newspapers were analyzed. In both cases, with ANOVAs & qualitative analysis, respectively, the hypothesis was confirmed. 4 Tables, 22 References. Adapted from the source document.

Este é um ensaio teórico sobre a relevância do conceito de massa utilizado no contexto dos estudos de Comunicação. Há o reconhecimento da importância da mídia na formação de identidades, comportamentos e sociabilidades, a dinâmica vivida na esfera pública promovida por ela e nas relações entre diferentes práticas culturais. Nestes termos, o conceito de massa está completamente superado. Já deveria ter sido superado pouco depois de ter sido inventado. Logo após as primeiras pesquisas de Lasswell sobre as intenções de voto dos norte-americanos, descobriu-se uma teia complexa de fatores, em que eles votavam influenciados por inúmeras variáveis e, portanto, não eram uma massa homogênea, sem identidade, sem rosto. O fato é que, do ponto de vista científico, o conceito de massa, em termos analíticos, é completamente inoperável, é um muro opaco que esconde atributos fundamentais do público receptor das mensagens midiáticas e impede a compreensão dos complexos processos interativos que ocorrem entre eles.

After analyzing the economic origin of the globalization concept & the internationalization of capital, from WWII until the emergence of the first global corporations, examined is the impact of this process in the cultural arena, where global images are translated around the world by the mass media, thus impacting national & regional identities. Also reflected on are problems of the "information age," in which increasing globalization is being pushed by the development of media industries, especially the new technologies that permit accumulating, transferring, & processing data at low cost. 9 References.

The media & terrorism have a longstanding relationship. Comparing the PLO high jackings in the seventies & September 11, 2001 shows us that terrorist attacks have long been deliberately planned to have an impact on the media & world public opinion. The March 11, 2004 attacks & the media had an influence on the electoral vote, especially the internet & mobile phone networks. References. Adapted from the source document.
