The main challenges of our time are globalization and the influence of global processes on the formation of ethnocultural identity. Correspondingly, the number of theories of ethnocultural identity is also growing, and includes theories of objectivism, instrumentalism, constructivism, ethno-symbolism, and ethnicity. The article studies the influence of globalization on the identity crisis. The author clarifies reasons for its occurrence, as well as possible ways and means of overcoming it. The most important method of studying the problem of ethnocultural identity is the comparative method.

Summary

Introduction

Важнейшим методом исследования проблемы этнокультурной идентичности является сравнительный метод. Эриксон понимал идентичность как процесс и результат личностного развития, имеющий связь с социальной адаптацией личности. Несмотря на активную разработку в современных научных теориях проблемы идентичности, существует множество интерпретаций этого понятия, что свидетельствует о сложности явления. Под этнокультурной идентичностью мы будем понимать осознание своей принадлежности к той или иной этнической общности на основании общей территории проживания, устойчивых особенностей культуры и языка.
