Abstract

The article deals with the concept of "national identity". In modern social and philosophical science, there are two main approaches. Supporters of one of them believe that it is meaningless to consider national identity in the context of globalization. Globalization violates traditional concepts of national identity, forms of social and ethnic identification. The subjective roots of self-identity whose feeling formed a person within the pre-globalization traditions are neglected. At the same time, the modern world demonstrates a picture in which the basis for rapid and even radical social changes is identification with other people and self-identification, which has a functional orientation and a desire to isolate oneself from others. Supporters of the second approach beleive that identity implies similarity. National acts as an indicator of a critical attitude to the old tradition and a required condition for socio-cultural and socio-political development of social relations and foundations of modernity. In modern conditions, the basis for the national identity is identification with an ethnic or religious group. Strengthening the ties of the identification plan depends on the changes taking place in the emotional and cognitive sphere of modern society. The article studies the problem of formation (or destruction) of the national identity, its place in the system of modern social relations and its future.
