Abstract

The article considers nationalism of various forms as a relevant phenomenon of the modern world. Nationalism is defined as a political ideology coupled with a certain social practice. The author analyzes the theories of nationalism belonging both to Russian and foreign scientists, reviews peculiarities of civil, liberal and state types of nationalism. Special attention is paid to ethnic nationalism, its causes and socio-cultural consequences. The author substantiates the necessity of civic nation formation in Russia in order to prevent the occurrence of negative forms of nationalism and to overcome the inter-ethnic problems. The author pays attention to the nation state concepts and to the practical possibilities of the consociation democracy.
