Abstract

Aim. To define and describe the positions of Ukrainians in their attitude to the war on Russia and reflection of this attitude in the discourse of daily life in wartime. Concept/Methods. 25 transcripts of semi-structured interviews subjected to thematic analysis. Relying on the categories identified through thematic analysis, the criteria differentiating the attitude of Ukrainians to the war, viz. personalization/depersonalization, media practice of content consumption, assessment of the so called “we-they-relationship”, reflection on the changes in daily life, the process of adaptation to changes, ideas of exemplary behavior were established. Results and conclusion. The analysis of the results enabled to outline the problematic field of assessment of the attitude of Ukrainians to the full-scale war on Russia and reflection of this attitude in the discourse of daily life in wartime. Relying on the criteria differentiating this attitude, three typical positions in the attitude of Ukrainians to the war were outlined – that of external observer, optimistic fatalist, and rational optimist. Practical application. Clarification of the specific characteristics of the attitude of Ukrainians to the war and perception of the enemy under such circumstances enables to envisage the public opinion response to certain decisions related to the full-scale Russian invasion of Ukraine, to plan communication campaigns promoting volunteer movement with due account of different positions taken by Ukrainians as well as to determine the degree of psycho-traumatizing of individuals in the crisis situation of war via discourse. Originality/Cognitive value. The study was conducted in October-November 2022, on the ninth month of the full-scale Russian invasion of Ukraine, and it reflects the thoughts of Ukrainian civilians concerning the war, its reasons, collective responsibility of Russians, and, finally, changes occurring in the life of the country and every individual, the process of adaptation to this complex situation. The use of quality methods (semi-structured interview) for the study ensured focusing on subjective peculiarities of the perception of war and daily life during in wartime. Conclusions: The typology of ideas, types of attitude of Ukrainians to the reality of war requires verification and further specification within a quantitative study aimed at clarification of quantitative figures representing the prevalence of the established positions.
战争期间日常生活的话语:2022年乌克兰计划
的目标。定义和描述乌克兰人对对俄战争的态度,以及这种态度在战时日常生活话语中的反映。概念/方法。25份经专题分析的半结构化访谈笔录。通过专题分析确定的类别,建立了区分乌克兰人对战争态度的标准,即个性化/去个性化、内容消费的媒介实践、对所谓“我们-他们关系”的评估、对日常生活变化的反思、对变化的适应过程、模范行为的想法。结果与结论。对结果的分析能够概述评估乌克兰人对俄罗斯全面战争的态度的问题领域,并在战时日常生活的话语中反映这种态度。根据区分这种态度的标准,概述了乌克兰人对战争态度的三种典型立场-外部观察者,乐观宿命论者和理性乐观主义者。实际的应用程序。澄清乌克兰人对战争的态度和在这种情况下对敌人的看法的具体特点,可以设想公众舆论对与俄罗斯全面入侵乌克兰有关的某些决定的反应;在充分考虑乌克兰人所持不同立场的情况下,规划促进志愿人员运动的宣传活动,并通过话语确定个人在战争危机情况下的心理创伤程度。创意/价值认知。该研究于2022年10月至11月进行,即俄罗斯全面入侵乌克兰的第九个月,它反映了乌克兰平民对战争的看法,其原因,俄罗斯人的集体责任,以及国家和每个人生活中发生的变化,适应这种复杂局势的过程。研究采用了高质量的方法(半结构化访谈),确保了对战时战争和日常生活感知的主观特点的关注。结论:乌克兰人对战争现实的观念类型和态度类型需要在一项旨在澄清代表既定立场普遍程度的数量数字的定量研究中进行核查和进一步说明。
