Abstract
The Internet is often regarded as a global and supranational network. Criticizing this view, the author examines the mechanisms for maintaining national identity and proves that the ritual use of mass media is steadily decreasing, while national discourse replaces it. National discourse also covers new media which start to resemble traditional mass media more and more, including their function of nation building.
