Slavic-Turkic Interaction: Reflection of Historical Memory in Internet Media
Main Article Content
Abstract
The article examines the features of preserving and functioning of historical memory about the Great Patriotic War (1941-1945) in Internet media – the Sputnik Telegram channel of three countries: Kyrgyzstan, Kazakhstan and Uzbekistan. The relevance of the study is largely due to changes in the collective historical memory in the post-Soviet space and the political processes of nation-building in these republics, whose leadership interprets important historical events, including the Great Patriotic War, differently. From distancing from the Great Patriotic War (Uzbekistan) to recognizing it as part of national history (Kyrgyzstan, Kazakhstan). The purpose of this article is to identify the features of transmitting historical memory about the Great Patriotic War in the Telegram channel Sputnik Kyrgyzstan, Sputnik Kazakhstan and Sputnik Uzbekistan. The use of content analysis, quantitative and comparative analysis makes it possible to identify images of the common memory of the Great Patriotic War, regional contribution, as well as the context of the current actualization of historical memory. According to the results of the study, as of September 1, 2025, 96,027 subscribers were registered in the Sputnik Kyrgyzstan Telegram channel, 47,212 in Kazakhstan, and 20,745 in Uzbekistan. It is noted that publications about the Great Patriotic War in the Sputnik Telegram channel are distinguished by genre diversity: news feeds, reports, interviews, official speeches and statements, historical notes, as well as announcements of state events, photo and video materials, infographics are used; large articles and publications are rarely posted. The uniqueness of the study lies in the fact that the analysis of the number and content of publications in the Telegram channel Sputnik Kyrgyzstan, Sputnik Kazakhstan and Sputnik Uzbekistan revealed national thematic specifics: Kyrgyz publications paid special attention to the spiritual dimension of memory; Kazakh publications noted the scale of the industrial and military contribution of Kazakhstan; Uzbekistan – the patriotic tone of publications about the Great Patriotic War.
