Abstract

The article discusses the trend in the Tajik media in the context of modern globalization and the external factors affecting them. It is noted that in Tajikistan globalization has contributed to the establishment of a less regulated media space; at the same time, the political regime of censorship and media control seeks to make the system integrative and sends all opposition views to the periphery. Consequently, the developed media strategy, based on the political regime of censorship and control of the media in Tajikistan, is in complete contradiction with globalization. The author concludes that the authoritarian regime in Tajikistan is contrary to the strategy of the new imperialism; at the same time, however, it is fuelled by internal tendencies to preserve basic values, which is evident in the lack of integrity of a common information space in modern Tajikistan.
