In the past decades, Serbia has been often mentioned in the Russian press, mostly in the context of several key discourses (the Orthodox religion as a common foundation of the culture of our two countries, the unsolved ethnic and territorial conflicts, the confrontation of pro- and anti-Western views in the political sphere), which allow us to assume that Russian students have mature social ideas of Serbia, though not of high importance.</p>social stereotypesthe survey instrumentsa collective image of a neighbor statethe image of a typical representative of another countryсоциальные стереотипыопросный инструментарийсобирательный образ страны-соседаобраз типичного представителя другой страны[Lapkin V.V., Pantin V.I.
