Abstract

Interethnic contradictions considerably aggravate the political situation in Northen Caucasus which is characterized by presence of armed conflicts (chechen, chechenodaghestan, ossetic-ingush, georgian-abkhazian, georgian-south ossetic, karabachos). Against this background radical nationalist organizations of Northen Caucasus with active support from without undertake attempts on realization of the separative plans which are directed on destruction of the state unity and territorial integrity of our country. To resist these tendencies it is necessary not only to use the positive experience which is already available, but also to search for new ways of attraction of representatives of various faiths to popularization of antiextremist ideas.
