Ethnic communities and interethnic relations. presentation of a lesson for an interactive whiteboard in social studies (Grade 11) on the topic. Presentation "nations and interethnic relations" Modern problems of interethnic relations presentation

In a multinational state, interethnic relations are an integral part of political relations. The state establishes and regulates relations between nations and nationalities. The set of principles, norms, rules through which the management of national relations is carried out, constitutes a national policy. Each multinational country has its own national policy. At the same time, there are ways and methods, proven by historical experience, of solving the national question and optimizing national relations.


In the system of national relations, political aspects are key and decisive. Directly in the sphere of politics are such issues of national relations as national self-determination, the combination of national and international interests, the equality of nations, the creation of conditions for the free development of national languages ​​and national cultures, the representation of national personnel in the power structure and some other issues. At the same time, the formation of a national idea, political attitudes, political behavior, political culture is significantly influenced by historically developing traditions, social feelings and moods, geographical and cultural and living conditions of nations and nationalities. Essentially, all issues of interethnic relations acquire political significance and can be resolved at the political level. The most important expression of the essence of national relations is the national question.


The national question is, first of all, the relationship of national inequality, the inequality of the levels of economic and cultural development of various nations, the lag of unequal and oppressed nations from the privileged, great-power nations. This is an atmosphere of national discord, enmity and suspicions on national grounds, naturally arising on the basis of inequality and the actual inequality of nations in access to economic and cultural values. The national question is not so much an ethnic problem as a socio-political one.


The national question always has a specific historical and social content, including a set of national problems at a certain stage in the development of a given country. The specific content of the national question reflects the peculiarities of the historical development of the country and its peoples, the specifics of their socio-economic and political structure, social class structure, national composition of the population, historical and national traditions, and other factors. Moreover, with the solution of some problems, others arise, sometimes more complex, due to an increase in the level of development of the nations themselves. Therefore, there can be no complete and final solution of the national question in all aspects and social dimensions.


The national question in the former USSR was resolved in several aspects: national oppression and, to a certain extent, national inequality (economic and cultural) were eliminated, conditions were created for the economic, social and cultural progress of the former national outskirts. At the same time, serious mistakes and violations were made in the course of carrying out the national policy. Contradictions and conflict situations were generated by the very fact of the joint residence in one union state of more than 130 nations, nationalities, national and ethnic groups. National formations differed significantly in ethno-social, ethno-cultural, ethno-demographic characteristics. These differences led to the difference in the interests and needs of the peoples, which gave rise to contradictions.


The collapse of the USSR caused numerous tensions and conflicts at different levels and in different regions of one sixth of the planet. Against the backdrop of a strengthening trend towards national self-determination, the rise of national self-consciousness, centrifugal, separatist aspirations of ethno-political forces appeared, putting their ambitions above the vital interests of the peoples. The following can be considered the causes of interethnic conflicts on the territory of Russia: committed acts of injustice and lawlessness against certain peoples (for example, the resettlement of entire peoples); uneven economic, social and cultural development of the republics, national-cultural formations; the predominance of the sectoral principle of management, as a result of which national conditions and traditions, social and economic interests of the integrated development of territories were not always taken into account; the general socio-economic crisis that has engulfed the state; changes in the ethnic composition of the population of certain regions as a result of demographic and migration processes; the problem of relations between the indigenous and non-indigenous population of the regions; growth of national consciousness; underestimation of the national factor by power structures.


The search for mechanisms and ways to solve them is being intensively conducted today in many areas. The conclusion of the Federal Treaty, the adoption of a new Constitution and a number of laws that directly or indirectly regulate relations between the subjects of the Federation, bilateral agreements on the division of powers, all this creates a legal basis not only for the development of interethnic relations, but also for the normal functioning of the entire social organism, the successful formation of a new federal statehood. The experience accumulated in this direction requires its timely and comprehensive analysis, taking into account the fact that interethnic relations are closely connected with all other types of social relations, and their content and forms of manifestation are determined by the general situation in the country.

No nation in the world is gifted with any ability superior to others. Gotthold Ephraim Lessing
  • There are about 2 thousand nations, nationalities, tribes on the Earth now. Among them are numerous and sparsely populated, the latter are called ethnic minorities. All of them are part of almost 200 states. It is not difficult to realize that there are many more nations and nationalities than there are states in the world, therefore among these states there are many that are multinational.
  • Data. It is generally recognized that the Russian Federation is one of the largest multinational states in the world, where more than a hundred peoples live, each of which has unique features of material and spiritual culture. In the overwhelming majority, the peoples of the country have developed over the centuries as ethnic communities on the territory of Russia, and in this sense they are indigenous peoples who have played a historical role in the formation of Russian statehood. Thanks to the unifying role of the Russian people, a unique unity and diversity have been preserved on the territory of the country, spiritual community and the union of different peoples.

Nations and international relations

Why should we study this topic? Who is the source of power in Russia? How many nationalities live in Russia? What is an "ethnos"? What ethnic conflicts have you heard about? What is tolerance?

Tasks of studying the topic To know what an ethnos and ethnic communities are. Understand the meaning of the main concepts of the topic (nation, nationalism, Nazism, chauvinism, racism, xenophobia, separatism, mentality, self-consciousness) 3. Know the causes of interethnic conflicts and ways to resolve them.

Correlate the type of society and the ethnic community Ethnic community Type of society (stage approach) Type of society (formational approach) Genus A) industrial D) capitalism 2. Tribe B) pre-industrial E) feudalism 3. Nationality C) post-industrial E) primitive communal 4. Nation

Compare the two concepts of "nation" - a historical community of people characterized by a common origin, language, territory, economic structure, as well as a mental make-up and culture, manifested in ethnic consciousness and self-consciousness. a historically established community of people based on a common territory, economic structure, system of political ties, language, culture and psychological makeup, manifested in the general civil consciousness and self-awareness (a sense of belonging to one's people, to its historical destiny).

Nation Autonomous, not limited by territorial boundaries, political grouping, whose members are committed to common values ​​and institutions Nationality - belonging to a particular nation

National values ​​are something that is especially significant and important for a person and society, which is recognized, with which people generally agree.

The national mentality is usually defined as a way of thinking, a spiritual disposition characteristic of a given particular ethnic community. In other words, the national mentality is a kind of memory of the past, which determines the behavior of people and helps them to remain true to their historically established values ​​and traditions.

Interethnic (interethnic) relations - relations between ethnic groups (peoples), covering all spheres of public life.

Ethnology is a science that studies the processes of formation and development of various ethnic groups, their identity, forms of their cultural self-organization, their collective behavior, interaction between the individual and the social environment.

Trends in the ethnic processes of modern integration - cooperation, unification of different ethno-state communities, convergence of all aspects of the life of peoples; differentiation - the aspirations of peoples for national independence

Ethnic conflict is any competition (rivalry) between groups, from confrontation for the possession of limited resources to social competition between different ethnic groups.

The main causes of conflicts are Territorial - the struggle to change borders, Economic - the struggle of ethnic groups for the possession of property, material resources, among which land and subsoil are of great value, in particular. Social - the requirements of civil equality, equality before the law, in education, in wages, equality in employment, especially for prestigious places in government. Cultural and linguistic - the requirements for the preservation or revival, development of the language, cultural community.

Examples of conflicts The fascist dictator Hitler, having come to power in Germany in 1933, made the extermination of the Jewish population part of the state policy. In November 1947, the UN decided to create in Palestine, the British mandated territory, the Jewish and Arab states - Israel and Palestine. May 1948 - Proclamation of the creation of Israel From that time on, a conflict began that continues to this day. Yugoslavia and Albania England and Ireland

Ways to prevent conflict situations The first is the use of legal mechanisms; The second is negotiations between the conflicting parties, both direct (between delegations of the parties) and through intermediaries. The third is informational. It involves the exchange of information between the parties on possible measures to overcome conflict situations. A public dialogue (in the press, on television) among representatives of all ethnic groups is appropriate, with the aim of jointly developing proposals that meet common interests.

The humanistic approach is the main guideline in the implementation of the moral, political, and legal regulation of interethnic relations. The main features of this approach are: recognition and respect for the diversity of cultures, adherence to the ideas of peace, rejection of violence in relations between peoples; development and continuous functioning of democracy, ensuring the realization of the rights and freedoms of the individual, regardless of nationality; the focus of state bodies, the media, education, sports, all forms of literature and art on the formation among citizens, especially young people, of a culture of interethnic communication.

Terms (write in a notebook) Genocide - the extermination of certain groups of the population on racial, national, religious principles Anti-Semitism - national intolerance towards Jews Racism - the existence of unequal races, divided into higher and lower Apartheid - racial discrimination legally enshrined and supported by the state authorities Nationalism - the idea of ​​exclusivity and the superiority of any nation over another Chauvinism - an extreme aggressive form of nationalism Afrocentrism - the idea of ​​the superiority of black Africans over people with white and yellow skin Xenophobia - an obsessive dislike for "strangers" Discrimination - infringement of rights Separatism is a demand for sovereignty and independence for an ethnic group

Tolerance - respect, trust, willingness to cooperate, compromise with people of any nationality, the desire to understand and accept their cultural values, lifestyle, behavior.

In the spring of 2002, a young Russian woman, Tatyana Sapunova, was driving along the busy Kievskoye Highway when she saw a poster on the side of the road calling for the murder of Jews.
