Telin K.O., Polosin A.V. Media markets: crisis instead of system

Abstract: This article examines the modern state of the global information state. The authors presuppose that the regularities of the capitalist economy and the currently existing trends towards the transformation of this sector have far ranging sociopolitical consequences, and the assumption about the creation of “network society” or “imperia” in the style of Michael Hardt and Antonio Negri are not yet substantiated. As the result of this, there is an objective need in the research of the relevant aspects of development, as well as in regulation of the information space, including from the perspective of the direct political consequences. As the methodological basis the authors use a systemic approach, in which however, the information space and the media environment are in a close connection with the state policy and the action of the key actors of capitalist economy. Having left the regulation and control, the media markets, from the authors’ point of view, carry an urgent threat for the political stability and form a fundamental challenge for the international relations, as well as the domestic policy of the modern states. The influence of the market mechanisms and neo-liberal practices of the last decades “dilute” the integral understanding and perception of the information environment.
