The problem of relations between representatives of different ethnic groups is extremely urgent in Rus-sian society. The study consistently raises the ques-tion of the importance of ethnic self-identification in the context of preventing inter-group ethnic con-flicts. The main models of ethnic identification and self-identification are considered. The view that eth-nic identification practices based on the paradigm of constructivism and instrumentalism have a high potential to overcome inter-ethnic contradictions is justified. The initial data for the study are the results of a secondary analysis of regional studies conduct-ed in Krasnodar region and the Adyghe Republic in the period from 2015 to 2019. The reliance on empiri-cal data and their correlation with the existing trends in the identification strategies of diaspora and asso-ciations of fellow-countrymen made it possible to show qualitative characteristics of primordialism, constructivism and instrumentalism.
