SCHOLARLY DISCOURSE IN THE DIGITAL AGE – SOME DIRECTIONS OF DEVELOPMENT

(translated from original by O.A. Radchenko)

This paper discusses some directions of development that seem to be extrapolatable on the basis of what we know to date about how the digital revolution affects academia and its communication system. Drawing on that interdisciplinary state of research five aspects are outlined that determine scholarly discourse taking place in the World Wide Web: a) media infrastructures and platforms, b) ethno-theories within the field of scholarly discourse online, c) aspects of quality control and information overload, d) newly evolving digital genres and e) the question if there will arise a new order of academic knowledge. Subsequently some hypotheses on problems that might appear in the near future are discussed too.

Keywords: academia, scholarly communication, WWW, social media, meta-academics, media linguistics
