Abstract

Objective of the study is the analysis of the current situation in the world and in Russia that is aimed at destroying the cultural core of Russian civilization; the detection of conflicts that negatively affect the process of shaping all-Russian identity, community and patriotism. The methodological basis of the study is a range of general scientific methods, comparative analysis is the main among them. The results of the study. Ideology and censorship at the state level are necessary for confrontation in the hybrid war that the collective West is waging with Russia. It is necessary to sequester the provisions laid down by Western agents of influence in the text of Article 13 of the Constitution of the Russian Federation, which prohibits ideology in the country. The Article 13 was included in the text of the Constitution of the Russian Federation by agents of Western influence. The results of the study can also open a scientific discussion concerning the issue of the “Image of the Future”, which is currently relevant in social and political discourse. Prospects of the study. The research prospects are determined by the most important issues for modern society, which are on a par with the strengthening of the social and political spheres in the Russian Federation and the need for transformations in the designated areas, which should lead to a way out of the protracted systemic crisis. Thus, there is a significant need to identify the problems and conflicts that have a destabilizing effect on the formation of a current Russian identity and a sense of patriotism.
Keywords:
