Authors have come to a conclusion that the subject of national unity is strategically important for the republic, the state security enters a concept. The carried-out content analysis has shown that range (genre, thematic, freymingovy, etc.) continuously extends. However the unambiguous opinion on posi- tive recognition of the term “national unity” isn’t created. The modern media discourse of Kazakhstan is more aimed at formal wellbeing and therefore ideological concepts are presented only in about state to media. If they are used on social networks or alternative media – that, sometimes, get negative coloring with distortion of meanings, and also can’t act as the consolidating force.
