Popis: Introduction. The article tries to consider everyday sociocultural practices implemented by the population of a multi-ethnic region, ranging from hostility towards people of a different nationality at the place of work to nationalist propaganda in the media. Materials and Methods. The empirical basis consists of the results of the sociological study “Ethnic and Confessional Situation in the Republic of Mordovia”, carried out by the researchers of Research Center for Social and Economic Monitoring in May 2019. Results and Discussion. The results indicate that, regardless of nationality, the residents of the region demonstrate a rather high level of tolerance, which is manifested both in declarative assessments of the level of interethnic tension and a low frequency of dissimilative sociocultural practices. Conclusion. The use of the adjusted scale of social distance (or the scale of assessment of loyalty) allows the authors to state that the factor of nationality is not decisive in the situation of kinship, while belonging to a different religion in some cases can negatively affect ethnic stability.
