Metamorphoses in Medical, Political and Environmental Positions and Trends in the Integration of Patriotism and Cosmopolitanism on Lake Baikal

Threats and risks of the pandemic, to change the borders of the Siberian and Far Eastern Federal districts, the law of the Russian Federation for relief for populations living in protected areas, suggestions officials about translation of lake Baikal in the Federal territory and other metamorphoses pushed the corresponding changes in the relations of the Baikal residents to their health, environment and Patriotic position. Citing the results of specific socio-psychological studies on these issues, the authors suggest the urgent need to merge the positions of a patriot of a small homeland with the psychology of a new cosmopolitan — a person who has realized that the interests of Terra Patrie begin with himself and his needs. If the «old» cosmopolitan has the motto of life: «Where it is good, there is the homeland», then the new cosmopolitan has a different motto: «Where the homeland is, everything should be good».
