Kabardino-Balkaria: From a political rally to a civil society

Abstract

The article studies the issues of the civil society
development in KBR and the influence of the national movement,
which originated at the end of last century, on the sociopolitical
situation in the country. The article is the first attempt
to analyze the reasons of the confrontation between the titular
ethnic groups and the role of the national movements in
solving these problems. The author concludes that the study
of national movements is significant both for the theoretical
analysis of this form of political activity and for development
of state policy in the sphere of relations with public organizations.
