Synopsis

THE IMAGE OF POLITICS AS A GAME IN INTERNET MEMES

The article focuses on the image of politics in internet memes as a ludic form of communication. Its main goal is to present the image of politics dominating in memes as different types of games (mimicry, agon, ilinx) and to discuss the elements that build this image. The author discusses theoretical issues of the internet meme as a genre, mediatization as a process of shaping information about public life (including politics) today, and ludicity as a dominant function in contemporary new media broadcasts. The author then examines the elements of the image of politics as a meme game, illustrating the analysis with selected examples. The article concludes with a summary of possible consequences of the popularisation of perceiving and thinking about politics through memes.
