metadata.name: dc.description.abstract
metadata.value: The author of this article examines some specific language mechanisms for expressing a
  special type of implicit evaluativeness in modern Russian media discourse. The author proceeds
  from the assumption of the existence of so-called “pseudo-values” in the communicative
  environment of society, which are understood as non-unconditional values. It is noted
  that the diagnostic, representative context for identifying values of this type in the speech
  practice of Russian native speakers is a statement that includes a meta-language commentary
  “v khoroshem smysle (slova)” (“in a good sense (of the word)”). The goal of the study is to identify
  the main models of language representation of so-called pseudo-values in modern Russian
  media discourse. The main research methods are the method of logical analysis of implicit
  information in language utterances and the method of contextual analysis of metalanguage
  elements of the text. Based on the material of the Newspaper Corpus as part of the Russian
  National Corpus, the work shows that values of the new Russian reality, declared as positive in the media, such as a career, competition, individualism, “the West”, fashion, etc., actually act
  as pseudo-values that are not regarded by native speakers in usage as unconditionally positive
  ones. This is confirmed by the very possibility of using these nominations in mass media discourse
  with a clarifying meta-language indicator “v khoroshem smysle (slova)”. Special attention
  is also paid to the use of this meta-language commentary as a conscious means of speech
  influence and a language manipulation technique. It is concluded that the use of contexts
  with the said reflexive in media discourse always has the character of an internal polemic: the
  speaker diverges from the value stereotypes assigned to the depicted phenomena and concepts
  in an objective language evaluation, in generally accepted nominations, and in the direction of
  both increasing the evaluation register and lowering it.
