metadata.value: The article explores theoretical approaches to the nature and features of the Russian media
  industry under current social transformations. The author attempts to identify main theoretical
  approaches to defining basic concepts of the media industry in the modern media studies,
  as well as their paradigmatic genesis. The rapid transition of media to new technological and
  organizational conditions emphasized the need for academic approaches to the media industry,
  its connection with the society, its nature, principles and aims. The Russian media industry
  does not have a single agreed conceptual and terminological apparatus shared by the public,
  mass media, government, media professionals, educational and academic communities. Certain
  contradictions in the conceptualization of the media industries by Russian and foreign
  researchers are also evident. The author uses a polyparadigmatic approach to the analysis of
  the Russian media industry and consider it in the context of the main paradigms of media
  conceptualization — empirical functionalism, cultural paradigm and political economy. The
  main impact on the theoretical comprehension of the media industry, in the author’s opinion,
  is provided by the political economy paradigm, which analyses media industry in the context
  of cultural industries, critical political economy, and business. When considering the formation
  of the media industry in the specific Russian conditions — legislative, economic, social,
  technological — the author takes into account the foreign and Russian academic traditions
  in the media comprehension. The author outlines the terminological question: specifics of
  interpretation of the concepts “media industry”, “media sector”, “media business”, “media ecosystem”
  are taken into account. Furthermore, the author focuses on the process of the formation
  of the Russian media industry in market conditions and its current dynamics confirmed
  by the statistical data: the volume of the Russian advertising market, the number of officially
  registered media, the features of the media regulation legislation, etc.
