Obraz wroga w pryzmacie tradycjonalizmu ideologicznego we współczesnej Rosji
The Image of the Enemy in the Prism of Ideological Traditionalism in Contemporary Russia

Summary/Abstract: This article aims to identify and analyse images of the enemy in contemporary Russian ideology. The active development of re-ideologisation in Russia makes this topic of particular interest. Historical-genetic and imagological approaches and elements of critical discourse analysis are used to solve this problem. The paper provides a general description of the emergence of traditionalism in post-Soviet Russia. It identifies Soviet, Orthodox, and imperial rhetoric used to create the image of the enemy. The study reveals the syncretic nature of contemporary Russian traditionalism and points to the totalitarian nature of its political language.
