FACTORS AFFECTING THE DISAPPEARANCE OF SMALL-NUMBERED LINGUISTIC CULTURES IN THE NORTH CAUCASUS REGION DURING GLOBALIZATION

Abstract

The article studies factors affecting the complete and partial disappearance of small linguistic cultures in the North Caucasus. The paper reveals historical and cultural prerequisites for the formation of the foundation of the sociocultural system of various societies and communities of the North Caucasus region in the X-XVIII centuries. Some aspects of the complex differentiation of society in the linguistic space are revealed, as well as the role that the migration of Turkish and Iranian peoples played in this. In the context of the modern stage of improving the integration of Russian culture and culture of the peoples of the Caucasus, the typology and structural-functional component of the Caucasian languages belonging to the Indo-European, Altaic, Kartvelian and Iberian-Caucasian language groups are studied.
