Abstract
Socio-turbulent trends in the global dimension lead to the loss of axiological foundations and guidelines for the development of humanity as a whole and individual social and state entities. The issue of disorientation of modern state-building is relevant even for developed democracies, not to mention such weak state constructs as Ukraine. There is a demand for ideological foundations of state-building and public administration. The purpose of article is to actualize the issue of the functionality of ideology as a structural phenomenon of state building in new socio-turbulent conditions and circumstances. The state ideology performs a number of important functions in the life of the country and society, namely: integrative, axiological, system-forming, spiritual, reproduction of national identity and more. Ideologies play the role of a consolidating factor in social relations, create a value and spiritual world in the state at the level of public consciousness. The negative role of ideologies is manifested in political involvement, the desire of its bearers to offer (impose) to society a one-dimensional picture of the world, which may conflict with the scientific picture of the world. Despite the negative manifestations of some political ideologies, state ideology is important as the basis of the country's development and the strategy of its progress: it allows to overcome the value vacuum in society, to consolidate the nation to build an independent state, promotes the development of national identity.
