The evolution of socialization factors in the context of the formation of civic identity
Abstract
In this article, the subjects of the civic identity formation and the evolution of political socialization factors are analyzed. Socialization mechanisms of ethnic and civic identities have various types of influence on a person, competing with each other. In the work, critical factors that impact on the socialization process are identified, such as instability of modern capitalism, the decreasing role of the welfare state, the participatory democracy crisis. These factors create conditions that strengthen ethnic identities and increase the influence of populism in politics. The factors lead to a change in the role of a state and to a weakening civic identity.
