Abstract: | Social change brings about discursive change, especially causing shifts of meaning within the key concepts of social discourse (here as: disc./discs). The concept of den'gi (money) has undergone fundamental alteration in Russian language and culture since the perestroika. In this article, this conceptual change is discussed. The interviews conducted in 1993 reveal conflicting discs. on money that are rooted in Russian, Soviet-Russian - the traces of the minor role money played in the Soviet era were still present in social disc. in 1993 - and free enterprise ideologies, respectively. They also reveal that by that time a clear tendency towards a concept of money oriented by market economy had already emerged, at least among the younger urban population. |
