The globalization processes of our time seem to lead to the erosion of ethnic boundaries and the prevalence of cosmopolitan identity. However, ethnic identification and self-identification remain one important parameter that determines the human being’s own value and place in life. The author thinks that in post-industrial society ethnic boundaries are more of a mental nature. Erving Goffman’s frame methodology is used to analyze ethnic processes. Intra-ethnic and inter-ethnic relationships within this approach are interpreted as specific frame interactions. The loss of ethnic identity becomes an indicator of the loss of an important part of our own personality, an indicator that we cease to be ourselves, an indication of own insignificance. But today the way of urban life, education, professional activities, and the household acquire standardized forms. Therefore, the realization of our needs for ethnic identification is further moving away from ethnographic grounds and is increasingly taking the form of the execution of some standard scenarios.Obviously, external, visual forms are the easiest to stage interpretation and ritualization. Visual markers of our own ethnicity (language, clothing, accessories, cuisine, etc.) in our minds are idealized and absolutized, they become necessary elements of self-identity. Any person, who attacks sacred entities in reality, or in perception of this reality, automatically becomes an enemy or renegade. According to the author, the identification of a set of standard scenarios of ethnic behavior and their integration into social interactions will explain and resolve existing ethnic conflicts and minimize the possibility of their occurrence in the future.
