Today\u2019s Ulyanovsk region is very unique from an ethnic and confessional point of view: firstly, the region is characterized by average values both in terms of the share of the Russian population and in the number of ethnic groups; secondly, the region is characterized by a significant, albeit declared, role of religion. However, the most significant thing is that over the past 30 years the ratio of the most numerous peoples has changed (in some cases, quite significantly). In particular, the number of Muslim peoples has increased, but the number of Christian peoples has decreased. The article aims at studying the nature of interethnic and interfaith relations in the Ulyanovsk region based on the analysis of standardized interview data in the form of a street survey using tablet technologies (geolocation control and audio recording of each interview). The sample size for the region is 700 people, it is representative in terms of gender and age. The Organizer \u2014 &#8220;House of Human Rights in the Ulyanovsk Region&#8221;. The article states that due to the stable trend recorded in previous studies, which for decades had been recording a consistently negative attitude of Russians towards the peoples of Central Asia, as well as a contradictory attitude towards Islam, the changes that affected the population structure of the Ulyanovsk region have led to an increase in interethnic and interfaith tensions in the region. In particular, the author records an increase in respondents\u2019 tensions towards Ukrainians, and an insignificant increase towards migrants and representatives of other religions. Such trends can be explained by political events, in particular SMO, the population\u2019s perception of the situation in the region and in Russia as a whole, occurring against the background of significant changes in the ethnic structure of the population (an increase in the proportion and number of peoples of Central Asia, Gypsies, and peoples of Transcaucasia).<\/p>\n<p><strong>KEYWORDS<\/strong>: ethno-confessional situation, Ulyanovsk Region, interethnic relations, interfaith relations, Christians, Muslims<\/p>\n<p><em>For citation:<\/em> Idiatullov \u0410. \u041a.
