Its main distribution platform are social networks, where, due to the almost instantaneous reaction on the part of society to information stuffing, the “cancellation culture” has become truly global. Since 2022 cancel culture is a tool for managing socio-political phenomena that can be used for foreign policy purposes. The authors make an attempt to conceptualize and operationalize this term, formerly used in publicjournalistic discourse. They also set themselves the task of identifying the subjects of dissemination of cancel culture and suggesting mechanisms to combat its negative manifestations.</p></abstract><trans-abstract xml:lang="ru"><p style="text-align: justify;">«Культура отмены» зародилась в западном обществе и изначально трактовалась как социальное явление, однако со временем стала приобретать все большее политическое измерение. Ее основной платформой распространения стали социальные сети, где благодаря моментальному реагированию со стороны общества на информационный вброс «культура отмены» приобрела поистине глобальные масштабы и с 2022 г. впервые затронула целое государство. «Культура отмены» представляет собой инструмент управления социально-политическими явлениями, который можно использовать во внешнеполитических целях. Авторы предлагают вариант концептуализации и операционализации этого термина, ранее бытовавшего в общественно-публицистическом дискурсе, а также ставят перед собой задачу рассмотреть каналы распространения «культуры отмены» и предложить механизмы борьбы с ее негативными проявлениями в отношении России.</p></trans-abstract><kwd-group xml:lang="en"><kwd>cultural heritage</kwd><kwd>soft power</kwd><kwd>cultural diplomacy</kwd><kwd>paradiplomacy</kwd><kwd>museums</kwd><kwd>cities</kwd><kwd>regions</kwd><kwd>non-governmental actors</kwd><kwd>cultural and historical factor</kwd><kwd>West</kwd></kwd-group><kwd-group xml:lang="ru"><kwd>культурное наследие</kwd><kwd>мягкая сила</kwd><kwd>культурная дипломатия</kwd><kwd>парадипломатия</kwd><kwd>музеи</kwd><kwd>города</kwd><kwd>регионы</kwd><kwd>негосударственные акторы</kwd><kwd>культурно-исторический фактор</kwd><kwd>Запад</kwd></kwd-group><funding-group><award-group><funding-source><institution-wrap><institution xml:lang="ru">Статья подготовлена в рамках исследовательского проекта КМУ XII МГИМО МИД России.</institution></institution-wrap><institution-wrap><institution xml:lang="en">The article was prepared as part of the research project of CMU XII MGIMO University.</institution></institution-wrap></funding-source></award-group></funding-group></article-meta></front><body></body><back><ref-list><ref id="B1"><label>1.</label><citation-alternatives><mixed-citation xml:lang="en">Bouvier, G., &amp; Machin, D.
