According to the title, it describes the social conditions that shape the identity of citizens of Belgorod and Kharkov regions. It is necessary to emphasize the distinction between the terms of civil identity and cultural identity. We briefly describe the specificity of the border areas of Belgorod and Kharkov regions, as well as the historical background of their formation.
