Abstract

The article examines the role of Peter I reforms for developing the Russian identity in general, and in particular for the development of communitarianism as a special feature of Russian social thought. The study shows that the practical activity of Peter I and its theoretical analysis in the works by F. Prokopovich, V.N. Tatishchev and I.T. Pososhkov contributed to the development of sustainable, archetypal ideas within the Russian society regarding the connection between social harmony and social justice and the idea of the so-called “common good” and the cult of public service. Those ideas would be afterwards persistently reproduced in Russian history, obtaining philosophical and ideological framing.
