Editorial policy of the journal

The dynamics of formation and approval of the information space as a sphere of public life in any country of the world always depended not only on the level of civilizational progress of a certain community of people, but also on the results of various information-analytical and educational-cognitive institutions. Leading components of them have been and remain journalism, publishing, network editions.

Historically, the Ukrainian segment of the information environment has its own specifics. Through centuries, such an environment was formed under the dictatorship of the center of the empire to its national colonies, especially in the context of humanitarian policy. Ukrainians has not managed to get rid of this difficult heritage even today – it always reminds of itself both in politics and psychology of a certain part of citizens.

The program objectives and thematic content of the scientific journal will focus on two aspects:

• the analysis of the practice of formation and functioning of the Ukrainian information space in the social and political realities of Ukraine and in the world context;
• the coverage of theoretical, practical and historical aspects of the main components of the Ukrainian information space: the press, radio, television, network platforms and book editions.

1. The editorial board considers that the range of issues, which should become the leading ones for studies and generalizations by the authors of the collection, is the following:

• what threats to the national information space can be caused by globalization processes;
• which of the positive and negative trends are now emerging in the field of the Word creation – printed, spoken and widespread by other means of the Word;
• what instructional and useful can be deduced from the lessons of the past;
• who of the predecessors we can learn professionalism, decency, patriotism from;
• why today we should protect our own media product more actively and steadily;
• how to make it professional, competitive.

The editorial board will deliberately avoid the consideration of theoretical postulates in social communications sciences detached from the philological environment. First of all, because of their remoteness from the real practice of journalism and book publishing. The second reason is that the scientific journals with this somewhat blurred and not sufficiently substantiated term in the title (in relation to the subject and object of research) have already been published in a number of Ukrainian universities. Mainly in those, where the speciality «Journalism» with its specializations in the segments of publishing, editing, advertising and public relations is “registered”.

The range of  problem  researches covers the maximum number of facets of the information sphere which are complex and varied in the analysis of theoretical and practical aspects. These facets are divided into the following sections: «Actual problems of the information space», «History of journalism», «Theory and practice of modern journalism», «Network editions», «Publishing business», «Foreign media», «Advertising and promotion».

By attaching great importance to future of our science, which inevitably and in the nearest future has to integrate into the world context, a separate section – «Young Journalism Science» – will be included in the contents of the magazine. It will be a kind of platform for ideas, research and the first results of Master’s and Doctor’s of Philosophy researches.
