摘要
文章研究了现代社会的城市想象生成过程。这一跨学科问题的相关性体现在该领域现有研究的零散性上,包括通过城市实践的多样性来想象城市。作者指出,媒体话语是城市想象的生成器,它决定了当今城市的呈现和感知方式。对产生城市想象的媒体话语具体内容的理论分析主要通过三种模式进行。文章揭示了媒体话语的具体特点,通过诉诸各种模式的话语实践:媒体内容结构、话语参与者、媒体技术特征以及城市精神形象的象征性争夺,对现实和虚拟的集体城市表征的形成产生了影响。此外,作者还根据旨在研究城市想象生成特征(媒体图像、地方独特性、城市空间符号学、城市话语等)的研究实践,确定了媒体话语类型。本研究还包含作者对产生城市想象的媒体话语类型的分析,这是以 A. Lefebvre "空间生产 "理论为基础的研究的主要成果:a) 城市空间表征的媒体话语(官方话语);b) 城市空间媒体话语(市民话语);c) 城市实践的媒体话语(社区话语)。这种分析和上述类型学可以揭示媒体领域的各种话语实践生产领域、城市意义建构的主导载体,从而解释话语景观,投射出不同的城市表征。
Media Discourse as a Generator of the Urban Imaginary
The article studies the urban imaginary generating processes in modern society. The relevance of this interdisciplinary problem is proved by the fragmanted character of the existing research in this area including urban practices diversity through which the city is imagined. The author demonstrates that media discourse is an urban imaginary generator, and it determines how the city is presented and perceived today. The theoretical analysis of the media discourses’ specifics that generate the urban imaginary is carried out in three key modes. The article reveals the specifics of media discourse, impacting the real and virtual collective city representations formation by appealing to discursive practices various modes: media content structuring, discourse actors, media technologies features alongside symbolic fight for city mental images. Besides, the author identifies the media discourses types based on research practices aimed at studying the urban imaginary generating features (media images, place uniqueness, urban space semiotics, urban discourses, etc.). The research also contains the author’s typology of media discourses, producing urban imaginary, is the main result of the researches based on the A. Lefebvre “Production of space” theory: a) media discourse of city space representation (official discourse); b) urban space media discourse (citizens discourse); c) urban practices’ media discourse (communities discourses). Such an analysis and the above typology allow to reveal the variety of the discursive practices production areas in the media sphere, the dominant vectors of the city’s meanings constructing, thus, to explain the discourse landscape, projecting different city representations.
