- Abstract
Through a brief survey of the typical definitions of information warfare, the article illustrates the authors’ views on the perspective investigation of the linguistic aspect of the phenomenon. The introduction engages with the shaping of the information warfare as a way to set the broader analytical context. It further reviews the contribution of the SibFU linguists into its formation and the importance of finding the ways to respond to the information warfare in terms of conducting multidisciplinary linguistic research. The authors specify the possible vectors for it: analytical and discourse vector (investigating the destructive messages and meanings in various types of discourse and narratives, linguistic analysis of the discourse strategy to counter destructive information, the academic discourse analysis on information warfare); lingo-technological vector (linguistic support of AI research); vocabulary vector (compiling information warfare dictionaries); lingo-valeological vector (investigating the influence of speech acts on human psychology); lingo-ecological vector (investigating language development in terms of lingo-ecological security, the language repercussions of information warfare); lingo-methodological vector (developing the complex method of information warfare discourse analysis); lingo-axiological vector (tracing information warfare in speech representation of moral as well as social values). The article also highlights the importance of the linguistic research in the information security realm
