Abstract

ABSTRACT The paper adopts a ‘communicative ecologies’ framework and problematizes it further by exploring a collective protest campaign in post-Soviet Belarus. This study explains how mediated civic protest communication is embedded in the socio-economic, political and cultural structures of a society. It focuses on a recent case involving civic resistance towards the construction of a so-called ‘Chinese industrial park’ near the capital of Belarus. The 5-year timespan (2012–2017) from the conception of this controversial project to its actual implementation is particularly suitable for exploring the complex interdependencies between traditional and new media in the framing of grassroots protest within semi-authoritarian post-Soviet settings.

后苏联传播生态中的中介抵抗:白俄罗斯“中国工业园区”的案例

本文采用“交流生态学”框架，并通过探索后苏联白俄罗斯的集体抗议运动进一步提出问题。本研究解释了中介公民抗议传播如何嵌入社会的社会经济、政治和文化结构。它的重点是最近发生的一起案件，涉及公民抵制在白俄罗斯首都附近建设一个所谓的“中国工业园”。从这个有争议的项目的概念到其实际实施的5年时间跨度(2012-2017)特别适合探索在半威权的后苏联背景下基层抗议框架中传统媒体和新媒体之间复杂的相互依存关系。
