Abstract: In the article, based on the analysis of the relevant regulatory legal and program-project documents, the trends in the development of state policy of the Russian Federation in the field of na-tional culture are considered. To reveal the concept of “national culture,” an analysis of the definitions of the terms “culture” and “nation” was carried out. The interpretation of the term “nation” is presented within the framework of two main theories: the German theory is based on a primordial approach, and the French socio-political one. There was also a demarcation of the concepts of “ethnic culture,” based on common origin, traditions, folk art and “national culture,” which is based primarily on national identity. In the light of the provisions of the theory of sociocultural dynamics P.A. Sorokin analyzed state policy in the field of national culture of the Russian Federation. The dynamics of state cultural policy is considered in the target and tactical aspects. An analysis of the content of decrees of the President of the Russian Federation, as well as software and project support for this area, revealed that in the first two decades of the current century, significant attention was paid to the development of cultural infrastructure. During this period, a very significant part of the content of national culture was assigned to historical monuments, folk crafts, folklore, that is, elements of ethnic culture. The value component of culture was not given a priority role. From 2021, an interpretation of values is being formed as the basis of national sovereignty and the potential of Russia’s world leadership. The list of basic traditional Russian spiritual and moral values is fixed by a special decree of the President of the Russian Federation. It is concluded that the main vectors of the transformation of state policy are: in the field of strategic guidelines – the transfer of the center of attention in the interpretation of the concept of “national culture” from the ethnic aspect to the civil-political aspect, and in the applied sphere – from the infrastructure component to the value component of culture.
