The war in Ukraine 2022 in Western mass media

The purpose of the research is to study the ideological contexts of the war in Ukraine, and the political and cognitive aspects of news by applying the interdisciplinary approach where the language is considered a social practice.
The object of the study is the linguistic image of the Russian-Ukrainian war and its vision in the British and American media discourse.
The subject of the study is discursive strategies and tactics applied in the British and American mass media discourse on the war in Ukraine and linguistic means of their verbalization.
Critical discourse analysis is based on the analysis of obvious and non-obvious structural relations of dominance, discrimination, power and control through their manifestations in language. Unlike other approaches to discourse analysis and text linguistics, critical discourse analysis focuses not only on the study of written or spoken texts, but also analyzes the social processes and structures that produce these texts.
