Be.b.shevchenko@mail.ruSamara State Technical University1508202023636708102021Copyright © 2020, Shevchenko E.B.2020When we are talking about scientific research over the past 10-15 years the issue of territoriality has long ceased to be a specialized one. Its understanding requires an interdisciplinary and special approach that can provide not only economic and political interpretation, but also differentiate territoriality from a sociological and philosophical point of view. In the article the author considers the above-mentioned object through the prism of a retrospective approach, referring to the history of the emergence of territoriality as a special sphere of interaction between political actors. The hypothesis is put forward that territoriality is a factor closely related to socio-cultural changes in the aspect of interaction between institutional and institutional forms of geopolitical integration.integrationgeopoliticsterritoryworld orderинтеграциягеополитикатерриториямиропорядок[Демидов А.Г.
