This article investigates theoretical issues as well as functional and stylistic manifestations of language aggression in the information space. A genus-species connection is established between the terms ‘evaluation’ and ‘language aggression’. The term ‘evaluation’ refers to the critical analysis of socio-political, economic, and cultural processes and indicates the dynamics of stylistic norms and language aggression which affects genre and style of mass media, aesthetic criterion of standard language norms, and a universal and national values scale. The author analyzes a philosophical and evaluative paradigm of the means of negative axiology to denote the concepts of ‘state,’ ‘power’, and ‘war’ relevant to the conditions of today’s Ukraine. The article concentrates, in particular, on the dynamics of the language aggression expression in the 20th — early 21st century, namely on expanding the role of genre in using the language aggression in which a status of communication participants is shifted to a journalist and its reader. In this sense, the modality of the mass media’s duty is addressed to the processes and phenomena within the state, in particular to the authorities and external challenges of the Russian-Ukrainian war. A special emphasis is placed on the implementation in the mass media of the current functional and stylistic potential of language to express the socio-political and philosophical confrontation of hostile parties in the context of the division of values into their own and others. The paper examines vocabulary, phraseology, metaphors, epithets, means of expressive syntax, the phenomenon of desymantization of terminology, and formation of new synonymous series, which are indicative in modern texts and express linguosophy of universal and national social consciousness. Keywords: language aggression, evaluation, negative evaluative language means, semantics, semantic and stylistic function, synonyms.

Camus’ notions of absurdity and revolt remain relevant today, especially with respect to very recent developments in the growing role of electronic and digital mass media. Cormac McCarthy’s 2006 novel The Road, describing a father and child’s journey after the world as we know it has been destroyed, is used to highlight the nature of absurdity and revolt in their updated early 21st century version.

Using a contemporary Kleinian psychoanalytic model, this paper explores some important theoretical issues relevant to understanding infidelity for the couple psychotherapist. The main focus of this paper is on the problems that one or both of the partners in a couple may have with mourning past or impending loss, and the consequent infidelity that may result from a manic attempt to replace depression or psychic pain with excitement. The concepts of the oedipal situation, triangulation, mourning, and manic defence are outlined in terms of the implications for understanding infidelity. The importance of viewing infidelity as possibly reflecting a range of psychological dilemmas across the developmental spectrum is emphasised. Clinical material is used to illustrate the role of unresolved pre-oedipal and oedipal issues, manic defences, and the ensuing triangulations that may develop, providing the psychic structures for infidelity.

This article is devoted to analysis of the modern problems of book publishing in the context of national information space. Development of the Ukrainian state is impossible without development of national book publishing, which is a part of its information space. In Ukraine, as one of the post-Soviet states, the formation of new information and communication system is based on its own information tradition, mentality and features of spiritual culture of the Ukrainians. It plays an important role in shaping culture, spirituality, comprehensive vision and consciousness of the nation. They were and they are a source of knowledge and the most effective way of its transfer. The transience of processes occurring the era of information society, radical socio-economic reforms, sectoral technological revolution requires the continuous scientific researches and analysis, identifying the trends in publishing industry as one of the most important factors in the state’s democratic progress. The author summarizes the development of book publishing of Ukraine and shows its role and place in the modern information society. The study of the modern book publishing is impossible without digression into the past, without finding out the roots of studying of the analysis object. The specific problems of the book industry are identified. It is concluded that in the modern Ukraine the publishing business has intensified, although the positive changes are taking place very slowly: the appropriate economic conditions for development of the publishing industry have not been created, the equipment are outdated; editorial, publishing and printing equipment of domestic manufacture are nonavailable; introduction of advanced technology are low; purchasing ability of the population is low; the sales network of printed products has been destroyed and so on. The businesses are becoming increasingly uneconomical. We propose some measures to improve this situation, strengthening the role of industry in the national information space. The key to improve the situation may be systematic and persistent efforts of the Ukrainian government to support the industry.The reason is that a comprehensive study requires from the performers not only historical knowledge, but also economic, managerial, psychological, political efforts and so on. The most important thing that the society and the state should need is the component of doctrine of information security in the context of the national security
