https://doi.org/10.18384/2224-0209-2025-1-1519

Abstract

Aim. To compare the discourse of scientific publications devoted to the digitalization of the political sphere of society in leading Russian political science journals.

Methodology. As part of the comparative approach, a content analysis of bibliographic descriptions of publications for the period 2014-2024 was carried out on the topics of “artificial intelligence”, “fakes”, “electronic voting”, “social network”.

Results. It has been revealed that the greatest attention of researchers is paid to artificial intelligence and fakes, which are the broadest areas for research with an accessible empirical base that can be verified.

Research implications. The results of the study may be of interest to political scientists specializing in the field of digitalization of political processes and political comparative studies.
