Summary / Abstract:

LTŠia publikacija autorius siekia išnagrinėti Lietuvos informacijos politikos raidą nacionalinės įstatymų leidybos kontekste. Prabėgus dviem dešimtmečiams galime įsitikinti – viena vertus, žodžio ir spaudos laisve (jos raiškomis), kita vertus – permaininga Lietuvos partijų veikla ir politikos nenuoseklumu bei gožiančia Lietuvos informacijos erdvę Rusijos žiniasklaida. Be to, tampa aktualus klausimas: ar įstatymų leidėjas turi pakankamai būdų ir formų pasisakyti dabartinėje Lietuvoje? Autorius pastebi, kad daug metų Vyriausybė informacijos politiką supranta ne tiek kaip analizę ir sistemą, bet kaip trumpalaikių įvaizdžio projektų kūrimą bendrame „projektų visuomenės“ kontekste. Ar Lietuvos piliečiui svarbu gauti laiku informaciją apie galimą banko griūtį arba būtinų vaistų trūkumą? O gal šios ir panašios grėsmės – kaip naujienų temos paliekamos tiesiog žiniasklaidos pasirinkimui. Straipsnyje apžvelgiama informacijos politiką reglamentuojančių aktų raida, todėl šios tematikos aspektai, susiję su piliečio saugumo jausena ir viešąja etika, yra tik paminėti. Iškeliama problema – koks yra ir bus įstatymų leidėjo vaidmuo informacijos politikos atžvilgiu.

ENAuthor seeks to analyse the development of Lithuanian information policy in the context of the national legislative procedure over last 20 years, since re-establishment of independence in 1990. Over this period, we may make certain, on the one hand, about the freedom of expression and the press (its manifestation); on the other hand, about changeable activities of Lithuanian parties and political inconsistency as well as Russian media which has been currently flooding the Lithuanian information space. Moreover, the following question becomes relevant: Does the legislator have enough ways and forms to speak out in present Lithuania? The author notes that for years the Government has perceived information policy not as the analysis and system, but rather as the creation of short-term image projects in the general context of "project society". The article gives an overview of the development of acts governing information policy; therefore, reference is only made to the aspects of this theme related to the citizens’ feeling of security and public ethics. The problem is raised: What is and will be the role of the legislator with regard to information policy? In 1990-1992, the Lithuanian Parliament became the centre of political events and was the major source of political news. This basically changed the role of the Sajūdis Movement as a revival organisation which led to the first free election and the influence of its information structures (Sajūdis information agencies, periodicals). Many political decisions, which reflected the will of the electorate and determined changes in economic relations, were passed in the Supreme Council – Reconstituent Seimas.During that stage of (re)establishment of statehood, the concept of parliamentarianism – the foundation of democratic Lithuania – emerged. Today, it is important to emphasise this as the dissemination of the parliamentarianism idea in society, only a very small share of which has had the experience of living in a real parliamentary state. Freedom of information and parliamentarianism appeared to be related aspects. In the context of the freedom of information, during the same period Lithuania’s society had to withstand the information war declared by the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics (USSR) against the Republic of Lithuania (which also implied the aim to discredit our national parliament – the mouthpiece of the nation’s will), and in the context of this war, the media had to identify the priorities of topics, sources and audiences in order to participate as the active and forceful factor of political communication. At a closed sitting of the Parliament held on 06.06.1991, Chairman of the Supreme Council – Reconstituent Seimas and Head of State Vytautas Landsbergis, reminding that the Parliament had assigned the "Interim Defence Authority to lead the actions of physical (military) as well as political, information and other defence until the USSR aggression and war against Lithuania is stopped", described the Lithuanian information policy as defensive. At that time when the new Lithuanian media system was forming, the Parliament assigned state information functions to the Lithuanian Television and Radio (housed in the building of the Parliament, because the Soviet troops had occupied the Head Office of the Lithuanian Radio and Television and the TV Tower in 1991); and the leaders of the Parliament established the national daily "Lietuvos Aidas".
