Political context of modern types of religious fundamentalism
( Pp. 34-36)

The article considers the formation of religious fundamentalism as an ideological trend and the response to the factors of globalization in the world, the prerequisites and features of its formation in modern conditions. An analysis of theoretical approaches to the essence of religious fundamentalism, its social manifestations and consequences is undertaken. The author draws attention to the features of the functioning of Islamic fundamentalism, its extremist trends, the connection of radical Islamic fundamentalism with the spread of fanaticism, the use of Islamic radical fundamentalism as an ideology by extremist and terrorist organizations. Considering Orthodox fundamentalism, it is noted that it is quite closely connected with the state policy of the country, which vividly confirms both domestic and foreign policies of Russia in recent years. The interaction of politicians and the church acquires the meaning of the revival of Orthodox spiritual culture in order to fill the ideological vacuum that appeared after the collapse of the USSR and the fall of the ideology of communism. Broad media coverage of the activities of politicians in the Orthodox Church is aimed at disseminating among the people opinions about the integrating function of Orthodoxy, about the special identity of the Russian people and the special mission of the Russian state. The Orthodox Church, thereby, has a positive effect on the perception of the people of the ruling power, becoming its political symbol. As a result, the author concludes that radical Islamic fundamentalism enjoys the support of radical Islamic groups by manipulating the ideas of equality, transforming the leaders of the fundamentalist doctrine into spokespersons for the interests of social classes, dissatisfied with the influence of the West as a whole and the results of Western modernization in particular.
