The role of social networks in information warfare

§1. Analiz the Concept Information Warfare

In my work I have consider information wars and social networks. Information warfare is dangerous threat to the state which usually occur in social networks.

The term "information warfare" appeared in 1970. His invented scientist Ron Thomas. Information wars are long, but today, they are especially dangerous.

According to N. Podosokorskye (2012, p.14) Recent events in Russia, due to the unprecedented mass (early 90s), the participation of people in street protests for fair elections, many experts rightly connected with strengthening the role of social networks in the real life of society. Not by chance the main grounds for the unification of the protesters and dissidents do not become legally registered organizations and their websites on the internet, and many communities in blogs and social networks created by seemingly ordinary people. "Network hamsters" demonstrated the power and danger of social media, their opportunities for union members with a variety of interests and concerns. Owners and technical developers most popular social services such as "In Touch", Facebook or LiveJournal, figures appear equal in influence of federal and international politics. Not for nothing, on the Internet at one time had circulated a joke: "2024: US President Mark Zuckerberg congratulated on his birthday Russian President Pavel Durov and gave him a radio for the soul. "

Rastorgouev S. P. (2004, p.3) first proposed the same human community to consider the essence of the information war from different sides, defining goals, objectives, algorithms, strategies and tactics of information warfare, basing sufficiently rigorous mathematical justification and his theory destroys the structure (CP-nets).

The discussion S. V. Tkachenko, (1996) for example, argues that Russia is under Information blow. Thanks to the victory in the Cold War, the West first gained access to natural resources. That is why the Western countries will make every effort to strengthen its dominance over Russia. Escape from the grip of these at the moment impossible. However, realize that they choke and strangle intentionally - necessary. Only then will be able to effectively counter the enemies of Russia in the information war. Today the struggle for territory and remain in it's natural resources in the first place means a struggle for the minds and souls of the people who inhabit it. This is the information war to win it all means. However, the country in which the political and intellectual elite is not aware of national interests, or worse, deliberately neglects them, doomed to defeat. Many "researchers" intricately scoff Russian people and its history. State authority refuses to recognize the Russian national culture, preferring only to Western values. At the same time in the US, for example, the protection of their traditional values always been presented to American politicians as one of the cornerstones of national security, "American values", "American democracy", "American way of life", etc. Experts explain that the information war - a war of a new type, the object of which is the consciousness of the people. It is based on the ability to manage and manipulate the public consciousness, the subordination of human will. For information rebuff aggression must first understanding of current events - stress and V. A. Lisichkin L. A. Shelepin. Publicist T. Mironova wonders why relaxation of mind and will in the Russian people's heads in confusion, turmoil in the showers. The main goal of the developers of information technology - to manipulate the masses. Today, with all the ideas enshrined in words of humanism - a frank and unceremonious invasion of the human soul. Iznichtozhat national thinking and behavior of Russian national type. Summons - each of us can and must fight: "It is time to realize that against us in Russia unleashed a fierce war. Being targeted suppression of reference points of our spirit, our national consciousness - understanding, memory and will. The purpose of war complete enslavement of the people. All this is evidence of the most ambitious in the history of the Russian war. Do not know that, do not understand what is happening, is not aware of all the drama perpetrated with us, then not be able to provide adequate and equivalently, resistance. We must take up the challenge, and if you do not wish to die, to realize the need for retaliation. "Kara-Murza SG in the book "Manipulation of consciousness" is trying to identify the device whole machine manipulation of public opinion; Show appearance in the USA in the history of the new type of social administration, based on the suggestion. The fact that in other societies evolved for thousands of years in the United States was designed from scratch, in a new, purely scientific and engineering method. Man "liberal mindset (which today seems to be dominated by a" cultural layer "of Russia) is convinced that the transition from violence and coercion to the manipulation of consciousness - the tremendous progress in human development, almost" end of history. "

A more rigorous conceptualization of social capital proposed by J. Koleman (1990, p.24), who calls him a resource, moving from donors to recipients. Social capital is equal to the sum of the links of the actor with other actors and mediates the mobilization of foreign resources. So is the translation of social capital into other types of capital - economic, cultural, etc.

However, J. Turner (1991, p.550) points out three main types of flows in social networks: the material, symbols and emotional. Under the symbols Turner has in mind information, ideas, messages, material resources - all sorts of things (like groceries). To some extent, as characters can make money - in the end, money provide access to material value. The exchange of emotions, of course, also is an important part of networking, but this kind of exchange is not amenable to registration, in any case, this task requires special tools, which we do not have.

§2. Analiz the Social Network in Information Warfare

Through social networks are implemented economic, cultural, social and symbolic capitals. A. Dugin said, (2001, p.58)"In the wars of network agents of influence are not just well-known public and political figures, directly protect the values of the West, but also those who oppose them or puts their own ideological model. In the information war, as in the art of managing a yacht, you can move and with a head wind, affecting only the details of the behavior, and the rest making up the information accurate and synchronized supply (based on a special algorithm). "

E. Bondarenko (2008, p.24) believes that, social networks on the Internet continue to be at the peak of popularity and has already been the object of persistent attention of researchers. Moreover, new opportunities for their use: they are firmly in many areas of business and become an integral part thereof. Not spared a similar trend and our country - globalization has made it possible to use a single phenomenon in very different fields. In this article we will look at the social phenomenon.networks in terms of learning and development, and give examples of networks that are used for such purposes, the company that created a corporate social network.

AVAILABILITY OF PROPAGANDA

Today social networks play an important role in society. Below-mentioned work was made from October 21 to October 27. The analysis on the social network "Facebook", in Evromaydan group was done. In this analysis the special attention was paid on a question, whether there is a promotion on social networks of a protea of Russia. In total for this period of carrying out the analysis 110 publications were made.

All these researches are given in the following schedules:

Chart 1. A promotion ratio to total number of publications

According to this schedule we observe that promotion against Russia on social networks is conducted actively! 82% are promotion against Russia, and other 18% it is other information.

This research shows that the social network is the main tool and the people actively support it likes and responses.

Chart 2. Types of Propaganda

Proceeding from the schedule it is possible to tell that all types of promotion were used in publications. But the most often used promotion I was personal opinion. The analysis showed that in a week (on October 21-27),19 publications belong to personal opinion. In personal opinion negative opinions were often used. There is a direct insult of the president Putin, a direct insult of the Russian people.

To the following by number of promotion there is agitation, 44 open publications. One of the bright propaganda publication was such as "The West is infinitely more developed and civilized, than Russia. Stop Fascism" (October 23).

In the following type of promotion - transfer generally I was a photo of a statement and comparison with history, comparison of present time with last years. There were such publications as "We deal with revolution, not with anti-government protests, not change of the power, and with "fascist junta" which sends to the east "retaliatory groups".

And the person having faced this lexicon, can't is detached to look at events any more, he appears in history of sacred war, in which already on lexical level clearly, where kindly, where angrily. It gets to the textbook of history.

Chart 3. Number of publications in a network

These indicators show that a large number of publications was published 1 till October 22, October 23, October 27 and recession of publications was on October 25.

Because on November 22, 23 and 27 there were days off and the people actively used social networks, number of publications are maximum, and on October 25 there was everyday life and because of employment number of publications is minimum.

Proceeding from it is possible to draw a conclusion that social networks promptly rushed into our life and, seemingly, intend to remain in it for a long time. They open the world for the person, and the person - to the world. And thus social networks are the direct tool on impact of people and on promotion.

Conclusion

A study was conducted. Proceeding from the above-stated researches it is possible to come to a conclusion that "Social networks are the direct instrument of promotion in Information war". They besides the functions such as, an exchange of information, communication between people are the weapon for a manipulation of society and display their opinion.

In theoretical part concepts that such information war and social networks, and also a role of social networks in information war were considered. Data materials from books of authors of S. P. Rastorguev, Dugin A, J. Koleman, etc. Information war is use and managements of information for the purpose of obtaining competitive advantage over the opponent.

During practical research the analysis in "Evromaydan" group on existence of promotion in social networks against Russia was made. Proceeding from schedules it is possible to draw a conclusion that social networks are the direct instrument of influence on society and the people actively supports her likes, responses. 82% are promotion against Russia, and other 18% it is other information. Also all types of promotion were used in publications. Such types as personal opinion, propaganda and the link to authority were most often used. Publications the obscene language, an insult of ruling elite, a photo of a statement, comparison present with the past, etc. was used.

Owing to deficiency of time and means it was captured small part of information. This research demands social poll and further studying and addition.
