Abstract

The article examines various interpretations of the term “identity”, including social identity and ethnic identity. It substantiates the content of the concept “identity” as a subject of research in sociology (and ethnosociology as its part), and psychology, including social psychology, its various areas, and psychoanalysis. The work considers approaches to the analysis of social and ethnic identity proposed by a number of foreign and Russian researchers. The article analyzes various types and levels, the structure and functions of ethnic identity. Based on the analysis of the processes of ethnic revival, the reasons for the actualization of ethnic identity in a digital society are revealed.
