Abstract

Discussions on the identity of Russians focus mainly on issues of civil, regional, ethnic (ethno-cultural) identities. At the same time, the need to study the entire structure of personal / group identities is often ignored.  However, studies of identity structures of different groups of Russians with different levels of tolerance/intolerance show that there is a direct relationship between all the parameters of identity both at the meso-and macro-level: tolerant respondents identify themselves more often with all socio-demographic, socio-cultural and socio-political communities than fluctuating, the latter – more often than moderately intolerant, and those, in turn, – more often than super-intolerant.
