Abstract. In the 20s of the XXI century, the demand for an ideology capable of ensuring sustainable development is becoming more and more obvious in different countries. Such a request is keenly felt in Belarus, which is at the epicenter of the current European crisis that has unfolded around the future of Ukraine. The purpose of the article is to investigate the factors influencing the formation of the Belarusian ideology. The research method is to consider each factor, evaluate their correlation and their prospects. The analysis shows that the factors fall into two groups. One of them unites the aspirations to include Belarus in the system of Euro-Atlantic values. The other is to strengthen the international independence of Belarus. Fragments of both groups are represented in the modern Belarusian ideology. Belarus faces the task of consolidating and updating its ideology to unite the Belarusian society.
