The Impact of Globalization on National Law and Cultural Identity of Russian Citizens

Abstract

The paper focuses on the problems that arose during the collision of globalization processes in the economy, finance, politics, and traditional social institutions (government, law, and national culture). We believe that great challenges have the potential to change the social and economic development directions. Via the systematic approach, we established that the social and cultural characteristics of various public life sectors affect the government and the law. Their transformation also initiates the reverse process, when the government and the law trigger changes in traditional values. Besides, we pay particular attention to the factors that make society sustainable, a precondition for returning to traditional values. We claim that the conservative component of the government, the law, and the cultural identity of people stabilizes social and economic processes. We conclude that the attempts to revolutionize history are aimed at the government legal superstructure and cultural identity of citizens.
