The article gives an analysis of the fundamental notions that make the peculiarity of the Corsican society, including its insularity, its strong identity, and its social archaism. The article draws a comparison between the society of the island of Corsica, France, and that of the contemporary Russian Federation, which, according to the author, are both paternalistic and do not consider individuals as free and responsible.
