Abstract
The research is devoted to the consideration of some new methodological trends in the constructivism of the "third generation" of scientists. Its representatives, while remaining committed to the basic postulates of constructivism, at the same time turned their main attention to issues related to the theory of communication to framing as one of the ways of constructing reality and saturating it with certain meanings. Based on Martin Buber's theory of dialogue, constructivists draw attention to the dangers of universalism in the study of politics as a prerequisite and even a manifestation of the ideological fixation of certain concepts, positions, and theses. Meanwhile, the formation of a community as "we" presupposes a pluralism of approaches and recognition of different points of view, and at the same time "cleaning" the information space of many frames that allow, through the manipulation of "fakes," stereotypes and false stories, to form an idea of reality that significantly distorts it and even modifying.
