Abstract
The article presents a literature review and analysis of the characteristics of political identity. The study revealed that domestic scientists have not fully explored the concept of political identity. It is established that the research was carried out within the framework of other types of identity. To fill this gap, in this article we have focused on the characteristics of these concepts. To do this, we analyzed the articles indexed in Scopus. From the 2 798 materials found in the database, we selected 24 publications. Particular attention was paid to studies published in 2018-2022. Scientific results can be effectively used for the development of domestic political science. Also, suitable for conducting lectures on the subject «Political Science» in the module of socio-political knowledge at universities.
