Abstract

The paper highlights the role of the official and unofficial periodicals in Western Siberia as an instrument of interaction between the local society and judicial authorities. It shows that owing to the printed media such interaction was differently directed. The author describes distinctive features of the articles which dealt with the judicial bodies, their addressees and addressants. The author determines goals pursued by the participants of this communication process: informing the local population about administered justice, explanation of its limitations, as well enlightenment and education. The author notes evolution of this form of communication between the local population and judicial authorities (via periodicals) in the wake of legal reforms.
