Roy O.M. Territorial Identity of Russian Society: from Local Fragmentation to Civil Harmony // Philosophical Reflection on Historiographical and Prospective Tasks of Contemporary Public Law: Collection of Scientific Papers Based on the Outcomes of the First International Scientific Conference to Mark the Centenary of Sergei S. Alexeev (Ekaterinburg, 14 November 2024) / Editor-in-Chief V.N. Rudenko; Ural Branch of the Russian Academy of Sciences; Institute of Philosophy and Law, Ural Branch of the Russian Academy of Sciences; Institute of State and Law, Russian Academy of Sciences.– Ekaterinburg: Institute of Philosophy and Law, Ural Branch of the Russian Academy of Sciences, 2024.– P. 182-195.
Humans are social beings; as such, they enter into relationships with other people that are structured by issues that are important to them and that involve the participation of social institutions. By virtue of habitation on a particular territory, an individual consistently positions him- or herself as a subject of a local community, which in turn, is subsumed within communities having a higher level of territorial organisation. Each level of this hierarchical social structure differs in the degree of its coherence and integrity as manifested in the phenomenon of territorial identity, which expresses the ability of social communities to maintain the solidarity of citizens’ commitment to the social ideals and norms of the national state. The aim of the study is to substantiate the prospects and limitations affecting the formation of civil (national) identity of Russian society while taking the sociocultural diversity and value heterogeneity of local communities into account. Criteria for characterising social communities are formulated according to the structure of territorial identity, which is discussed in terms of its role in the wider system of social identity. Particular attention is paid to the content of municipal identity, within whose territorial format the greatest sociocultural diversity and axiological heterogeneity are observed. On the basis of the results, a number of measures to help overcome local fragmentation and achieve civil harmony are formulated.
