摘要

本文考察了乌克兰用户在网络环境中的意识形态隔离，并以Vkontakte(后共产主义国家最大的在线平台)上的党派新闻社区为例进行了研究。调查结果表明，尽管党派新闻社区的人数微不足道，但它们吸引了乌克兰用户的大量关注，并可能鼓励形成孤立的意识形态集团——或“回音室”——从而加剧社会两极分化。本文还调查了预测用户对党派内容的兴趣的因素，并确定居住地区是选择性消费亲乌克兰或亲俄罗斯党派新闻内容的关键预测因素。

There can be only one truth: Ideological segregation and online news communities in Ukraine

The paper examines ideological segregation among Ukrainian users in online environments, using as a case study partisan news communities on Vkontakte, the largest online platform in post-communist states. Its findings suggest that despite their insignificant numbers, partisan news communities attract substantial attention from Ukrainian users and can encourage the formation of isolated ideological cliques – or ‘echo chambers’ – that increase societal polarisation. The paper also investigates factors that predict users’ interest in partisan content and establishes that the region of residence is the key predictor of selective consumption of pro-Ukrainian or pro-Russian partisan news content.
