Abstract
The complex and contradictory process of the genesis, formation and development of the Belarusian ethnos is considered. The perspective of considering the concept of “people” not only as a historical and ethnographic community, but also as a historical and political category is shown: a historically changeable community of people, which in the process of development of society objectively participates in material production, the development of culture, and political activity. A consistent analysis of the most important historical stages in the formation of the Belarusian ethnos made it possible to identify the place of the Belarusian people in the complex ethnopolitical events of the past and in the geopolitical challenges of our time. Scientific understanding of the process of formation of the Belarusian people, its role and place in the creation of national statehood has shown the decisive role and driving force of the Belarusian people.
