Information space

In 2001-2002, the media appeared in Moscow under the names "New" and "New Space". Since 2003 (PI N1-00919 dated 12/20/2002) to the present time under the name "Information Space". In the early years, the cultural and construction-industrial versions were placed under one cover (the maximum circulation was 150 thousand copies). About that time, according to Lev Anninsky : “... A strange publication: the newspaper“ Information Space ”: there pages of amused and colorful advertising are interspersed with pages that publish articles on cultural studies, political science, sociology, history. (Like on TV, where smart programs are interspersed with advertisements: if you want, watch, if you want, switch.) So here: if you want, delve into the ads, and if you want, scroll through them and read seriously, soar from the advertising slots into mysterious skies ”( “ Friendship ” peoples ” , 2007, No. 9 ^[1] ). Since the end of 2005, the culturological almanac "Information Space" began to be published separately. However, the construction and industrial version did not survive the economic crisis: in the fall of 2009 its release was discontinued. From May 2009 to September 2013, the culturological version (No. 122-123, 127-182) was also published as an internal independent supplement to one of the largest Israeli Russian-language newspapers, News of the Week (the circulation of such media in Israel , where the number of copies is not indicated practiced, according to the expert, is 10-15 thousand copies) ^[2] . Until November 2013, the publication was published in newspaper format A3 - at first once a week or twice a month, and since 2002 every month. Along with positive responses to the media, one can also find the only restrained and critical Alexander Garros of 2007, who wrote about several publications, including Information Space, in the article “On top of the formats”: “... Looks at a glaring heterogeneity ...” (“New newspaper ”, January 25, 2007, No. 5).

From November 2013 to 2016, under the same name, in Moscow on a quarterly basis, in the A5 format, a cultural, socio-historical, literary almanac (in the output number 183 — starting in a modified format — was successively marked with an “almanac-newspaper”) with a volume of 174 to 184 pages with a spine and in a full-color cover. Speaking about contemporary global interethnic and interreligious contradictions, Lev Anninsky noted on October 16, 2013 at the evening of “Information Space” at the Central House of Writers (“ Central House of Writers ”): “In these conditions, Information Space is one of the buildings that helps to sort this rake a little” ^{[ 3]} . Editor-in-chief Yevgeny Ben, presenting the publication in Literaturnaya Gazeta : “In the Information Space” materials on philosophy and tradition, prose works, poetry, memoirs, journalism, essays, and research on a wide range of humanitarian issues are printed. And with all the many faces of the reader, I hope that there is no feeling of “torn apart” and dissonance. The starting points here are humanism and tolerance, coupled with ideas about tradition and continuity ”(“ Dialogue from the Deep ”, LG, No. 50 (6443), December 18, 2013 ^[4] ).

Over the years, the poet Rimma Kazakova (see the Social Activities section in the Wikipedia article about it), writer George Ball ^[5] , Moscow historian Yuri Alexandrov ^[6] and many others took a direct part in the publication of Information Space.

Since 2006, Informspacespace was a corporate member of the Eurasian Academy of Television and Radio (EATP) ^[7] . The word "information space", which arose as the name of the media at the end of 2002, became widespread in public life. In 2015, “Information Space” (together with the editor-in-chief Evgeny Benim) was awarded the title of laureate of the All-Russian literary contest “70 years of Victory” “for many years of wide coverage of the theme” of the Great Patriotic War ^[8] .

In the 2000s, at different times, the deputy chief editors were Vladimir Radzishevsky (output no. 59 2004), Sergey Soldatkin (output no. 69 2005), Igor Dudinsky (output no. 80 2006), Leonid Gomberg (output no. 115 2009 )
