Since 1989 - the new period of ecstasy with the ideas of the state of law and democracy began. The western pattern of civil society has been claimed the target of transformations. As a result, the Russian concept of citizenship lacks the ideas of active participation, social rights and equality. The fact of getting the status of Australian citizen can not change this basic notion at once. To develop more adequate notion of citizenship we need time and the medium where new concepts and values could be discussed and assimilated reflectively and critically.
Mass media is the most natural way of being involved in such process.
Here we also can include the information about civil, social and political system of Australia. Indirect contexts reflect the views and opinions of immigrants, those aspects of their new citizenship which they believe to be of greater importance. I receive a normal pension. They treat me, an old ill man, in a very good manner. Till recent time, in Russia it was abnormal to have abilities and not to have possibilities to get higher education.
