Factors of actualization of the resource of social and political participation of youth

Abstract

The continuity of social, political, economic, sociocultural transformations is becoming a hallmark of modern society. The high speed of the changes and the crises with which they are associated create the risk of individual and group social maladaptation. In this article, the authors consider features that analyze and systematize the factors of actualizing the resource of political participation of youth, the criteria for systematizing factors: the external and internal environment, fixed, situational. They are not only interconnected, but also interdependent. Factors related to external ones influence the formation of internal ones (in a stable, economically developed society, in which the basic material needs of people are satisfied, the first place is satisfaction of social and prestigious needs, and especially in political participation); with a certain set of internal factors, situational factors are formed (in the absence of political interest in a young person, even the most professionally prepared propaganda and motivational technologies will not give the desired effect).
