Under the conditions of the protracted economic crisis in Russian society, a multitude of conflict-related contradictions are arising that are capable of turning into real sociopolitical conflicts. The emergence of conflicts depends on many factors, some of which stimulate the development of contradictions, while others help to smooth them out. The article assesses the conflict potential of Russian society by describing and analyzing the factors that contribute both to an increase in social tension and to its mitigation. The study makes it possible to identify a phenomenon for reducing conflict potential at a time of deepening economic crisis and worsening living conditions for Russians. An analysis of the existing contradictions in society makes it possible to identify more clearly the condition and trends in the development of Russian society and to take measures to prevent emerging social conflicts.
