Abstract
The paper describes the process of compiling an online bilingual dictionary of socio-political terms and problems facing the lexicographer. It illustrates the challenges with the compilation of the parallel corpus of socio-political texts as the ideological evaluation influences the word choice in English- and Russian-speaking news media. The work began with the creation of LSP corpora of media texts on political and social issues in English and Russian and involved extraction of lexical information via the Sketch Engine tool. There is an attempt to describe a new format of a reference book - a rather large, semi-crowdsourced, mostly-datamined dictionary of English-Russian socio-political lexicon.
