Abstract
The paper presents a vision of the problem of the relationship between state national policy and ethnosecurity based on the instrumentalist approach. The aim of the study is to analyze the ethnic aspects of public security in its systemic content and political interpretation using the example of modern Russia. At the same time, national policy is considered as a combination of nationbuilding as a political project and ethnopolitics as a concept of ethnocultural equality of all peoples of Russia. In turn, ethnosecurity is defined as a systemic characteristic of the ability of a multi-ethnic society to maintain its normal functioning in the face of external and internal influences. According to the authors, in order to successfully achieve ethnosecurity, it is necessary to adopt formalized methodologies and techniques for building a political security model that would include a range of conditions and requirements necessary for the functioning of the Russian ethnosystem and having a significant impact on it, that is, being significant. The paper presents specific directions and recommendations for improving the state national policy in modern Russia to achieve and maintain systemically significant parameters of its ethnosecurity. The focus is on the risks and threats posed by migration impact on the conditions for maintaining ethnic security in modern Russia.
