Abstract: The article presents a brief overview of the scientific discussion on the influence of communication processes on the construction, development and destruction of human identity. The argumentation of two key positions within this discussion is reconstructed. It is shown that the supporters of one of the points of view characterize the influence of communication on the formation and development of identity as constructive, and from the point of view of their opponents, involvement in communication processes contributes to the destruction of a stable human identity or complicates its formation. Conclusions are made that the position in the discussion depends on the grounds on which, from the point of view of the authors of the approach, the concept of identity is based, in connection with which each of the approaches can be applied to solve a certain range of research problems depending on the object and purpose of the study.
