Abstract: Abstract Politics is interpreted as an activity that regulates social time and space (STS), and the peculiarities of the mechanisms and processes of STS are considered in the general context of society’s civilizational and political history. In this aspect, every epoch is characterized not only by its own “design” of STS and the range of political chronotopes, but also by the peculiarities of their forming and the peculiarities of social identity. It should be mentioned that in pre-industrial societies the structure of STS, the range of political chronotopes and their geopolitical hierarchy are determined primarily by natural-geographical factor (population and territory size, resource potential). In industrial society, it is determined by the level of technological development. In modern world, the specificity of social time and space is determined primarily by the variety of person’s identities of political and cultural self-identification and by the scale and level of involvement of “the virtual” in society’s social and political objective reality. In this context, projective and virtual transformative individual and social minorities’ activity become the dominant process of forming STS and regulating political objective reality.
