In the paper the reasons of political beliefs and their functions are described, it is suggested that they help people to make the world more understandable and predictable, to fi nd reference points of political activity. The thesis is justifi ed that the more is the political instability of the society, the higher role in the system of personal motivation is played by the political beliefs.
