Abstract
The article deals with the concept of “people” people and as a dual, polemical, partially excluding each other theoretical matrix, the opposition of understanding the people as a community of memory and as an imaginary community is used. Our goal, however, is not only to sum up the two theoretical positions, but with the help of well-known concepts and traditions, we intend to try to make a small contribution to the elucidation of the existence of the people, using, first of all, the philosophical conceptual apparatus, and, as necessary, social ontology.
