Actual image of Paris in the Russian-speaking segment of Internet
Abstract
Studying the image of large cities on the basis of social media analysis is a new direction in domestic geourban science. It is of the growing interest due to unique information which is difficult to obtain by applying classical methods of research and broad options of its use in scientific-cognitive process and applied aspects. The article describes methodology, basic principles of database creation and specific results of the study of the modern image of Paris in the Russian-speaking segment of Internet. The analysis shows that the capital of France is well-known and particularly attractive to Russians. It is perceived through a stable and limited set of individual images exclusively related to the historical core of the city. The composition and expression of the images vary in the regions of Russia from north to south depending on the quality of the audience and the distance factor.
Supporting agencies: The study was carried out under the plan of research work of the Department of Geography of World Economy and partially supported financially by the Russian Foundation for Basic Research (project № 20-05-00784)
