Abstract

Gravitations around and the very traditional and non-traditional media are the focii in and through which globalization processes formed to agreat extent and still continue to form the diversity of their immanent forms. Different sociological perspectives, based upon several communicationally determined theoretical fields - net theory, theory of social relations, theory of dependences, theory of the intermediate - implying different communication dimensions, influence the former. In fact communicataion or information «revolution» (the two predicates got into scientific and applied requisition as equivalent and even more often as synonymous during the recent two decades) being constitutive for the globalization put extremely serious challenges to sociology of mass communicataion, positioning the problems of universalism and particularity on another surface, disarranging a number of socio-cultural strata. On the other side, globalization and glocalization processes reinforced changes of the existing paradigms (i. e. the mass consumption paradigm, the big and the little paradigm etc.), of tendencies, of goals etc. All those challenges frame those reinforcements up to a new communicational, supernational and socio-cultural plan, because contemporary realities place them into a new communication existence, into new communication tangibilities, into a new communication environment. At the same time they widen the positioning of their meaning in a new global context.
