Abstract
Recent studies have shown that the concept of “War” has changed its content structure [1]. The most active changes were caused by Russian intervention in Crimea and eastern Ukraine in 2014, which modified the notional, figurative and value components of the concept. For instance, the notional component of the concept of “War” was supplemented by newly-formed “postmodern subconcepts” [2], such as the Syrian civil war, the Russo-Georgian War, the Russo-Ukrainian War, as well as the proxy war, the hybrid war, the battle of narratives, and the diffused war. Taking into account that “both mental and conceptual spaces are essences of the same level” [3], the study of the newly coined subconcepts can shed light on what people in Ukraine and Russia think about Russia’s War in Ukraine.
