Literature Base

Sport is viewed as a setting with potential to offer social benefits to youth participants and alleviate broader social problems. Such promise requires intentionality of sport program philosophy, design, and execution. When designed with intentionality, youth sport can bring about positive change for individual youth and societies. This paper overviews the broad literature base, exploring 2 approaches to the promotion of social development through youth sport. One explores social- and/or life-skill development through sport for individual participants, whereas the other examines the role of sport in addressing broader social problems. Evidence-based strategies for fostering social development through youth sport are synthesized, providing guidance to coaches, administrators, youth workers, and others engaged in youth sport design, and exemplar programs that use youth sport as a vehicle for social development are presented. Limitations in youth sport research are summarized, and a call is made for more intentionally designed youth sport to promote social development.

Protest Activity

Based on a representative sociological survey and expert interviews in the Republic of Sakha (Yakutia), the article examines the perception of various social problems, as well as the protest potential of the population. It is revealed that the most disturbing problems of residents of Yakutia are related to social causes, low living standards, the amount of housing and utilities tariff s, reduced access to social benefits and, to a lesser extent, the problems of inability to fight for their rights, as well as corruption, unemployment, etc. It is shown that there are some differences in the perception of problems of Sakha (Yakuts) and ethnic Russians, as well as residents of the Republic of other ethnicities, but in general, the hierarchies of problems are similar. It was found that residents of the capital of the Republic often perceive problems in a similar way, and there is a more noticeable differentiation in the perception of problems by Yakuts and ethnic Russians in industrial areas. The declared protest activity in the Republic at the time of the study was recorded higher than at that time in the country as a whole, which is due to a complex of systemic social factors, as well as situational factors for the Republic.
