Abstract

The Internet as a new space of social-communicative interaction provides opportunities for new forms of the socio-statutory regulation. Territorial inequality of the mediatization process creates prerequisites for differentiation of preferences in the selection of the socio-communicative practices in the Internet. The purpose of this study is to determine the specific features of the attitude of young people in small towns and metropolises towards the value-statutory regulation in the Runet. On the basis of the qualitative study by an in-depth interview method, we obtained certain results about the similarities and differences in the socio-communicative practices and evaluations of the current value-statutory regulation in the Runet.
