The aim of the study is to determine the role of the historical tradition of social mutual assistance of the Russians in promoting social cohesion of people and overcoming difficulties in the development of the state and society.

The scientific originality of the research consists in the generalization of empirical material about history of the formation of mutual assistance traditions since ancient times, the Middle Ages and the New Age; the article presents well-grounded conclusions about the historical continuity of the traditions and mentality of the Russians. As a result, it was proved that the formation of the territory and statehood of Russia was initially accompanied by the active development of community and public mutual assistance of people, the formation of humanistic values and willingness to defend their native land. State structures at all stages of history have used the traditions of mutual assistance to strengthen the socio-economic position of the country, to develop people’s solidarity in the process of common creative activity.
