The analysis of influence taken by changes in identitie’s structure of South Siberia post-Soviet inhabitants over interethnic relation features

Summary/Abstract: When in 1990s Soviet Union disappeared, it caused post-Soviet people appeal to alternative reasons for self-consciousness growth, first of all–to an ethnic identity. This leads to definite fears that such an interest to ethnical identity can cause a interethnic tension growth. Article presented gives a subordinate analysis of ethnic and sociological researches which were held in Southern Siberia by means of formal interview from 1990 to 2016. This analysis aims to evaluate the grade of identities' transformations in region and their influence over interethnic relations features. Author comes to conclusion that changes in identity structure of region inhabitants, which took place in post-Soviet period, did not had a great influence over interethnic relations features. Tension in interethnic cooperation which could be observed in Southern Siberia (together with Russia), in his opinion, is determined by some other factors and cannot be a basis of social conflict in future.
