This article gives a detailed account of one of the topical issues of modern integrative linguistic stylistics, i.e., substantiation of the content of the latest concepts that are formed within the interrelated disciplines. Attention is specifically paid to the terms media stylistics, verbal and linguocultural content of the media. The author elaborates on the concept of linguocultural content of the media text interpreting it as linguistic and aesthetic signs of culture, components of linguistic and informational pictures of the world, i.e., a value-content meaning of the mass media which unfolds and concretizes the general and nationally marked concepts, and as a regular manifestation of the language norm. The data of the magazine A Woman shows that the verbal content is a significant, specific segment of the functioning of the modern Ukrainian literary language in the media space. It reflects the universal stratification of the language of national professional, social, every day, and artistic culture, the synergy of its mediatopes and media genres, broadcasts a hierarchy of social (socio-political, gender), psychological and economic stereotypes, and human needs. They are all united by the Ukrainian-centric linguocultural platform which consists of both value-semantic signs of culture and structural-level units of the literary-linguistic continuum. In terms of media stylistics, the language of Ukrainian-language media is analyzed in two complementary perspectives: 1) via metaphorical-associative field structures with specific core nominations; 2) via the principles of realization of the media structural-level norm in the mass media. Keywords: media stylistics, verbal content, linguocultural indicator of value, metaphorical-associative field, language norm, sign of culture.

The detailed consideration of lexical processes, structuring of lexical units, study of neologization processes, selection of functional types of neolexes, their classification and systematization provoke the active development of modern linguistics. The purpose of the work is to identify thematic subgroups of socio-political vocabulary, to find out the structural-semantic and functional features of the neolexes of the analyzed vocabulary in the mass media of Mykolayiv region. The object of the work is the vocabulary of the mass media of Mykolayiv region. The subject of research is socio-political vocabulary, neolexes in the mass media space of Mykolayiv region.To solve the above problems used methods of linguistic research, the choice of which depends on the purpose, objectives and collected factual material: the method of observation and the method of continuous sampling (to identify tokens related to the socio-political layer, innovations in publications and broadcasting); method of comparison (to determine the neological nature of the studied units and features of the mass media of Mykolayiv region at the all-Ukrainian level); descriptive (for inventory and classification of empirical material); component analysis (from the study of word semantics), comparable (during the analysis of socio-political vocabulary of the period 2015-2018). In the article the basic modern classifications of social and political vocabulary of language of mass media are considered, the thematic subgroups of tokens of the Nikolaev mass media are analyzed, features of the offered classification are established. Having analyzed the most important thematic subgroups that have been identified in the course of working with factual material, the following thematic subgroups function in the mass media space of Mykolayiv region: nomenclature names in the language of mass media; names of departments, bodies in the structure of the state administrative apparatus; names of political parties, movements, ideological currents and their members; tokens of the military sphere; name of social processes of disorganization of public life. The active use of the names of political parties, movements, ideological currents and their members is observed during the election campaign. In our opinion, due to the negative attitude of the society to the political activity of the majority of the representatives of the People’s Deputies of Ukraine, the affiliation of specific individuals to the respective parties has been silenced lately. But, of course, this subgroup of social and political vocabulary takes place and is actively reflected in the mass media, for example: poroshenkivci, election campaign, coalition government. Words that directly describe the life of society (spiritual life, cultural values, etc.) fully fill the pages of the media of various types, for example: patriotism, national symbols, street art, independence, unemployment, subsistence level. The nature of the information space is to respond quickly to what is happening in people's lives. That is why the vocabulary of the military thematic subgroup is most widely used, as the mass media reacts to the actual news worrying the Ukrainian society in general and Mykolayiv in particular. Other lexical spheres also actively function in mass media space of Mykolayiv region. Words to denote the most important political, economic, religious and other concepts form the basis for articles in newspapers and on the Internet.

The author presents a comprehensive analysis of extra- and intralingual characteristics which influence on the phraseological systems' update. The following issues have been considered in the article: linguistic imperialism, theory of linguistic economy, world globalization processes, rise of new platforms which influence on innovative processes. Based on the collected material, the author suggests a classification of new phraseological units depending on frequency of their usage in the media. It has been proved that creation of new phraseological units in the mass media is connected with their key functions, namely to inform the recipient and influence on him, name and construe new phenomena and create a verbalized image by different stylistic tools.

Abstrak: Islam pada dasarnya, bukanlah agama yang hanya tertuang dalam simbol tekstual dalam al-Quran dan Hadist semata. Islam sejatinya adalah agama yang tidak bisa menafikan gejala historis, sosial, budaya, politik, dan seterusnya. Dengan jumlah penganut yang tidak sedikit, serta tersebar diberbagai belahan dunia, termasuk Indonesia, Islam pun menjelma menjadi semacam ''gejala pasar''. Sebagai konsekuensi dari ''gejala pasar'', maka Islam pun mengalami proses komodifikasi. Dakwah sebagai bagian dari ajaran agama, juga tidak bisa mengelak dari komodifikasi, terutama semenjak lahirnya berbagai macam media informasi, termasuk media massa. Banyaknya program-program dakwah di media massa di satu sisi menambah transformasi nilai-nilai Islam, tapi di sisi lain terkadang merusak citra Islam, karena dakwah sebagai bagian suci dari ajaran agama, terkadang menjadi alat bagi media untuk meraih keuntungan dari keberadaan penduduk Indonesia yang mayoritas beragama Islam tadi. Tulisan ini berusaha untuk melacak jejak lahir komodifikasi, serta penggerogotannya pada ruang agama dan praktik dakwah, sampai pada akhirnya berusaha mencari titik temu antara komodifikasi dan dakwah.Kata Kunci:Dakwah Islam, Komodifikasi, Media Massa, Studi Pustaka Abstract: Islam basically is not a religion contained with textual symbols in the Koran and the Hadith only. Islam actually is a religion what cannot deny by historical, social, cultural, political, and so on. The number of adherents of Islam is never calculated as a small, because Islam is spreaded in various parts of the world, including Indonesia, Islam has become a kind of "market phenomenon".  As a consequence of ''symptoms of market'', Islam also undergoes a commodification process. Da'wah as part of religious teachings also cannot avoid by commodification, especially since the birth of various information media, including mass media. The number of da'wah programs on the mass media is the one hand adds to the transformation of Islamic values, but on the other hand it sometimes damages the image of Islam, because da'wah as a sacred part of religious toughts. Which sometimes becomes a tool for the media to achieve the majority of Indonesia's population was a Muslim. This research seeks the traces of commodification, as well as its encroachment on the religious space and the practice of da'wah, until finally trying to find common ground between commodification and da'wah it self.Keywords:Islamic Da’wah, Commodification, Mass Media, Library Study

The philosophers of the Illustration strained for defining the concept of «civil society», and came to the conclusion that this one was composed by the citizens’ associations that defended their interests out of the habitual politics. Nowadays, the civil society is made up by the not governmental organizations (NGO) and by the internationals organizations (for example, UNO), far from the economic profit that the market persecutes. The mass media have the force of changing the world and, because of it, the ONU and the NGO strain for creating programs that manage to put the mass media to the service of the civil society. Here are exposed the programs IPDC, the actions PNUD and the campaigns NetAid and CRIS. Los filósofos de la Ilustración se esforzaron por definir el concepto de «sociedad civil», y llegaron a la conclusión de que ésta estaba compuesta por las asociaciones de ciudadanos que defendían sus intereses fuera de los cauces habituales de la política. Actualmente, la sociedad civil está formada por las organizaciones no gubernamentales (ONG) y por los organismos internacionales (por ejemplo, la ONU), alejados de la ganancia económica que persigue el mercado. Los medios de comunicación tienen la fuerza de cambiar el mundo y, por eso, la ONU y las ONG se esfuerzan por crear programas que consigan poner a los medios de comunicación al servicio de la sociedad civil. Aquí aparecen expuestos los programas IPDC, las acciones PNUD y las campañas NetAid y CRIS.
