Abstract

The article highlights the concept of "identity" as one of the components of national-patriotic education, which acts as a value. The term "identity" is inextricably linked to the historical development of society. The purpose of the study is to analyze the theoretical meaning of the concept of "identity", as well as its varieties; to focus on the term "national identity", which affects its formation. It is established that identity is a social phenomenon. The difference between ethnic and national identity is also revealed. It is substantiated that the historical past, culture and religion are an integral part of the process of identity formation; the importance and impact of globalization on identity, its evolution or deformation is emphasized
