Methods: social-communicative approach using general scientific methods of analysis and generalization. Results: basing on the analysis of empirical and statistical data the dialectic contradiction is revealed between the actual as the instantaneous state of affairs in political-communicative sphere and the due as a system of information-communicative relations formed on the basis of normative-legal acts regulating the information sphere, which are adequate for the modern democratic society. The political-legal necessities are defined, which promote the implementation of the right for communication. Scientific novelty: the correlation is defined between the notions “right for communication” and “right for information”; structural elements of the given legal system are analyzed, as well as the mechanism of their implementation in the context of the modern political events and informational law-making. Practical value: the possibility of dialogical optimization of information-communication relations in the political sphere by adequate methods of legal regulation. Implementation of the right for communication promotes perseverance of the dynamic balance of the social system, rationalization of conflicts and communicational legalization of the authorities.
