Description
Summary:The collapse of the Soviet ideological and state order turned history into a field of search for identity and legitimization of ethno-political claims. The historical consciousness and historical memory of the population have become one of the most important factors influencing the formation of the socio-political space of modern Kabardino-Balkaria. The aim of the proposed work is to study the place and role of historical memory in the current context of the socio-political processes of modern Kabardino-Balkaria through the prism of assessments of the region’s expert community. The research method is an expert survey. The study revealed: according to most experts, historical memory has a disproportionately large influence on the situation in the Kabardino-Balkarian Republic; most experts give a negative assessment of the impact of historical memory on the current situation in Kabardino-Balkaria; most experts consider the activity on the Internet related to the formation of the historical memory of the population in the KBR negative and influential; most experts consider the role of historians in preserving historical memory and consolidating the society of the region positive, but not very influential.
