Rusya-Ukrayna Savaşına Litvanya’nın bakış açısından bakmak: İdeoloji, medya ve ‘Rus dünyası’

Öz

Bu kısa not, küresel ve yerel fenomenlere atıfta bulunarak savaş koşulları altında medyada ideolojilerin ve iletişimin çatışmasını ele almaktadır. Çalışma, RusyaUkrayna Savaşını ve Litvanya’daki tepkilerini kapsamaktadır. Bir tür ‘sert’ ideoloji olarak Rus dünyası kavramı analiz edilmektedir. Bu yazının ana tezlerini ise şöyle sıralamak mümkündür: 1. Diğer topluluklardan farklı bir topluluğun kimliğini oluşturan herhangi bir ideolojisi olmayan toplum yoktur. 2. İdeolojilerin çatışması siyasi çatışma ve savaşa yol açar. 3. ‘Yumuşak’ ve ‘sert’ ideolojiler vardır; savaş sırasında ‘yumuşak’ ideoloji ‘sert’e dönüşür ve sonuç olarak çatışma daha da artar. Bu yorum yazısında, Rusya-Ukrayna Savaşı ile ilgili olarak medya raporları ile beraber tarihsel ve felsefi değerlendirmeler de kullanılmaktadır. Sonuç olarak, Rusya-Ukrayna Savaşı’nı incelerken, post-truth çağında Avrupa değerlerinin Rusya merkezli bir ideolojiyle doğrudan olarak çatışma içinde olduğunu söylemek oldukça mümkündür. Öte yandan zıt değer sistemlerinin bu yan yana gelişi, çağdaş jeopolitik çatışmaların karmaşıklığını anlamada bir odak noktası haline gelmektedir. Araştırma böylece savaş, ideoloji, medya, retorik ve hakikatin anlaşılması zor doğası arasındaki karmaşık dinamiklerin daha iyi anlaşılmasına katkıda bulunmakta ve modern çağda farklı ideolojilerin bir arada var olmasının yarattığı zorluklara dair de çeşitli örnek ve bilgiler sunmaktadır.

Looking at the Russian-Ukrainian War from Lithuanian point of view: Ideology, media and the ‘Russian world’

Öz

This short note deals with the clash of ideologies and communication in the media under conditions of war, with reference to global and local phenomena. It covers the Russian-Ukrainian War and its reactions in Lithuania. The concept of the Russian world as a kind of ‘hard’ ideology is analysed. Thesis are as follows: 1 There is no society without any ideology that forms the identity of a community different from other communities. 2 The clash of ideologies leads to political conflict and war. 3 There are ‘soft’ and ‘hard’ ideologies; during war the ‘soft’ ideology turns into ‘hard’ and as a result the conflict increases. The commentary uses media reports as well as historical and philosophical analyses of the RussianUkrainian War. In conclusion, when analysing the Russian-Ukrainian War, it is possible to say that in the post-truth era European values are in direct conflict with a Russia-centred ideology. This juxtaposition of opposing value systems becomes a focal point for understanding the complexity of contemporary geopolitical conflicts. The research contributes to understanding of the complex dynamics between war, ideology, media, rhetoric, and the elusive nature of truth, and offers insights into the challenges of the coexistence of different ideologies in the modern era.
