In this concluding part of the paper, we continue an empirical analysis based on dividing the generation of millennials into two age cohorts. Special attention is drawn to a group of millennials designated as “3S” (“smartphones”, “social media”, “decline of the economy”). This younger generation began entering the period of adulthood since the year 2008, which has been marked by a continuous economic recession and broad dissemination of the technologies and digital consumer services. Data were collected from the annual Russian Longitudinal Monitoring Survey (RLMS–HSE) in 1994–2018. The results obtained show a divide in the millennial generation measured by a multiplicity of social indicators along with the preservation of many inter-generational differences. In the second part of the paper, we show that the younger generation of “3S” millennials demonstrates a decline in alcohol consumption and smoking, while being more involved in sports. “3S” millennials watch TV less frequently and are more engaged in reading and cultural activities. They reveal lower religious affiliations and are more optimistic in regards to their material status and life prospects. Many intra- and intergenerational differences are significant and robust over the time of observation when controlling for age and other standard variables. In conclusion, four types of inter-relations between intra- and intergenerational differences are delineated.

This article presents voices from Egypt reflecting on the question of who has the right to have a voice in the country in the first half of 2016. In the spirit of the research project “In 2016,” it aims to offer a snapshot of how it “felt to live” in Egypt in 2016 as a member of the young generation (al-shabāb) who actively use social media and who position themselves critically towards the state’s official discourse. While the state propagated a strategy focusing on educating and guiding young people towards becoming productive members of a nation united under one leader, popular youth voices on the internet used music and satire to claim their right to resist a retrograde patrimonial system that threatens every opposing voice with extinc-tion. On both sides, a strongly antagonistic ‘you vs. us’ rhetoric is evident.

Pancasila as the basis and ideology of the Indonesian state is a set of values that become a way of life for the Indonesian state, this condition ensures that the foundation of the state and the practice of national and state life must be based on the values contained in the Pancasila. The main challenges in grounding Pancasila in this globalization era are; decreased intensity of understanding of Pancasila in society, social exclusivism related to the swift flow of globalization so that it leads to a stronger tendency for identity politicization and social fragmentation based on SARA, decreased morality of millennial generation caused by the flow of information and technology that is not filtered properly as a result of the current industrial era 4.0. The efforts made in facing challenges in the millennial generation are fostering the spirit of nationalism, planting and practicing the values of Pancasila and using the internet wisely, building ideas and future visions of a strong young generation based on Pancasila morality.

Online media gives impacts on each individual's life because this stage can introduce an intuitive association between two individuals who are even far apart. Although it is loved and provided advantage by almost everyone, incidentally, web-based media has another side. Various detrimental consequences of online media are difficult to avoid. The development of information is changing society. Recently, electronic media has been demonstrated to transform people's personalities into virtual ones. The human character is described in all things considered, and people also shape themselves into something that becomes a trend. This study aims to determine the influence of social media usage on national identity and determine the positive and negative consequences of using social media that can affect national identity. This study uses the Literature Review (LR) strategy through a subjective methodology, which describes the problem to be contemplated and provides answers to defeat the problem in-depth and start to finish indicated by the side effects of the examination and the hypothesis used. The use of online media among the millennial or young generation is indeed less secure than adults. It cannot be denied that online media such as mobile phones, i-pads, or other gadgets are currently critical in everyday life. In Indonesia itself, these innovation advances have a positive impact but also have detrimental consequences. People in general also still need direct communication to reduce gaps or miscommunication between networks. However, some people like to be involved in workplaces with an open culture and flexible events, which can be reached easily by online media. The high application of online media in millennials causes simple changes in these young people's intellectual, emotional, and even behavior. Many millennial generations tend to use dialects that are not known as Indonesian or even imitating (westernized) clothing. Younger people generally feel happy when imitating foreigners, while foreigners embrace a free lifestyle compared to their society, which has begun to be compromised. Overall, we also see that many millennial generations need information about the importance of Pancasila as the image of the country, the state banner, and the state constitution.

Pancasila is the identity of the Indonesian nation, which means that Pancasila is a national characteristic that cannot be found in any country. Pancasila points are taken from the noble values of the Indonesian state. These principles contain culture, customs, and national character known as manners, cooperation, and high nationalism. As the successor to Indonesian culture, the young generation must be able to preserve and develop Pancasila. In this era of globalization, there are many challenges for the younger generation in preserving Pancasila. This study aims to provide an overview of the decline of Pancasila identity among the younger generation due to the impact of globalization. The research question that has been determined is how the practice behaviour of the younger generation towards the implementation of Pancasila, the solutions and efforts that all Indonesian people can make regarding the crisis of Pancasila identity in the era of globalization. This research method uses a literature review. The research sources were conducted from the latest journals and books published in 2019 until 2021 related to the theme of Pancasila and the millennial generation. The results showed that globalization has greatly facilitated foreign cultures to enter Indonesia. The younger generations use this foreign culture as a lifestyle without filtering it, whether it contains Pancasila values or not. This causes Pancasila has been forgotten and no longer applied in their everyday life. Young people can make various efforts to preserve the national identity, namely Pancasila. Apart from the role of the young generation itself, Indonesian society can also play an essential role in supporting the younger generation to continue implementing Pancasila in their lives. By conducting this research, it is hoped that Indonesia's young generation can understand, select, and stay away from the negative impacts of globalization that enter Indonesia freely. The solution that can be given from this research is that the younger generation must love their own culture more and practice every principle in Pancasila. Parents, educational institutions, and the government must also support the younger generation to maintain national identity, Pancasila values. The limitation of this research is that the researcher did not conduct any primary data, which means the data were not directly from the source. This causes the accuracy of this study to be less guaranteed. The recommendation that the researchers can give for further research is to obtain primary data to ensure accuracy and explore research topics regarding the fading of Pancasila identity in the younger generation in this era of globalization.
