Abstract
The phenomenon of cancel culture, being significant for a number of linguocultures, is increasingly subjected to thorough scientific analysis. The aim of this review article is to summarize and synthesize existing research dedicated to the phenomenon of cancel culture in Russian and foreign linguistics. A complete study of theoretical and practical articles which were selected according to such criteria as topic, source, and language, has made it possible to systematize research directions of cancel culture, to determine predominant ideas in Russian and Western academic environments, and to identify gaps in scientific knowledge on this topic, which include the insufficient study of the connection between the values propagated within the framework of cancel culture, and language.
