Abstract

Anatoly Ostapenko’s monograph «The Role of Ethnic Factors and Modern Processes in the Formation of the Belarusian Nation»” is reviewed. It is noted that the monograph is devoted to a topical and little-studied problem in historical science. It is emphasized that the sections of the reviewed monograph contain valuable analytical and critical material concerning the origins and time of formation of the Belarusian ethnos, the evolution of the religious worldview of Belarusians, the formation of the Belarusian nation and Belarusian statehood, the mentality of Belarusians and Belarusian identity. It is concluded that the peer-reviewed monograph will occupy a worthy place not only in the scientific achievements in the field of ethnological science, but also in historical science in general.
