Political hyperreality: the image of America in postmodernism

Annotation

The article examines a postmodernist concept of hyperreality in the political context. A specific interest is connected with analyzing this concept in terms of the real state - the United States of America. The works of the outstanding postmodernist philosophers Umberto Eco and Jean Baudrillard are examined in the text of the article. The parallelisms in interpreting the phenomenon of political hyperreality by these two authors are revealed; the differences in their understanding of this notion are shown.
