Voronkova O.A. Discourse Conflicts in the Network Society. In: Socio-political conflicts : theoretical concepts and practices of settlement : [monograph] ...

Abstract

The social global network is a communicative space in which traditional forms of life are rethought and new worldviews and new social practices are produced. But the global network is becoming not only a place for the exchange of opinions and preferences, but also an arena for social conflicts. The search for correlative points in the defended positions and the achievement of consensus is the main and most difficult task of network discourse. And only the development of discourse processes, and not their suppression by the establishment of any supreme control over the online public space, can lead to the resolution of conflicts and crisis problems.
