Abstract
The article presents an analysis of the features of conflict in women magazines in the Republic of Belarus. The purpose of the study was to determine the frequency of distribution of this topic and the presence of a connection with value aspects. Using quantitative and qualitative methods, 150 texts from the publications “Women’s Magazine” and “City of Women” were analyzed. The results showed that these magazines meet the main interests of Belarusian women, paying attention to psychological and social problems, family conflicts and problems at work. It is also possible to trace how the peacekeeping function of the media is manifested in materials about conflicts, since these materials are aimed at resolving difficult situations.
