https://doi.org/10.18384/2224-0209-2022-4-1189

Abstract

Aim. To study the key forms of the existence and functioning of ideology in modern Russian society.

Methodology. The main methods of research are systematic, comparative, and phenomenological.

Results. There are de facto two main forms of ideology in modern Russia. This is the official ideology, the ideology of dominant social groups, which is liberalism (but at the same time there is no de jure official ideology in Russia and there cannot be), and the catacomb ideology inherent in social groups that do not occupy key positions in the economic and political life of the country, which is conservatism. The full-fledged existence and manifestation of conservative ideology in all forms inherent in the official ideology depends to the greatest extent on these groups gaining real dominance or, more likely, real co-dominance in the economic and political systems of society.

Research implications. The results of the study make a certain contribution to political theory, and are important for forecasting modern Russia’s political development.
