“…as a phenomenon that is present in the culture of any nation, ethnic group, or country. The manifestation of patriotism is most often considered in a particular political context (Rousselet, 2020;Pearce, 2019), specific population groups (Lubsky, et al, 2016;Kolesnikova, et al, 2018;Morris, 2016), national ideas and movements (Anufrieva et al, 2018;Bakhlova et al, 2019;Emelin and Tkhostov, 2019;Polukhina and Vanke, 2019), but not as an objectively existing phenomenon that is of key importance for the institutionalization of the socio-cultural space necessary to preserve the identity of communities permanently residing on a particular territory. Partially, the politicization of patriotism is justified if keeping in mind that the very content of patriotism is interpreted differently across borders depending on the political order, prevailing cultural traditions, historical past and peoples' claims to a particular role in the world community (Hobbes, 2001;Berger and Lukman, 1995;Ivanova, 2004;Anufrieva et al, 2018;Danakari, 2019).…”
