Abstract

The article analyzes the role of cultural codes in ordering social processes and preserving the integrity and ethno-cultural uniqueness of Russian society. The authors prove that language, symbols and other sign systems, along with traditions, customs and rituals, as well as norms and rules of conduct, constitute a complex of cultural codes of ethnic groups and are the leading characteristics of ethno-cultural identity and national cultures that are used as social mechanisms of spiritual continuity and preservation of the integrity of society.
