In contradistinction to ethnic, territorial identities (defined as primary, «sociobiological») civic identity behove to political-cultural identities. Civic identity is identification with human citizen of the state and with a member of the community, which is a consorcium – association of people with common distany. Motivational-value connections with the State and citizens based on the typicality problems of social self-realization of personality in organizational space of state. Social conditions of self-realization, given in organizational state space, unite people on the basis of joint, are in axiological space of state. This civic identity differs from close to her national identity focused more on national culture and traditions and national interests in politics. In multicultural states civic identity plays a unifying role than national identity. Because in modern Ukraine are ongoing processes of state formation, civic identity of its inhabitants is in intensive dynamics.
