This article reflects the results of a study of the value orientations of modern student youth and the features of its civic participation. The political socialization of modern youth is becoming an important factor in the manifestation of its civic political activity. Political literacy of youth is achieved not only due to its inclusion in the educational process and the study of relevant disciplines (political science, sociology, geopolitics, etc.), but also thanks to modern communication technologies. However, even the formation of the so-called “media literacy” always entails active political participation; absenteeism has been and remains the predominant feature of the political behavior of the majority of the young generation. The spirit of rebellion traditionally attributed to youth is not always manifested even in the form of a protest vote, which is facilitated by the lack of confidence in the effectiveness of the electoral political mechanism as a response to a request for justice. The survey allowed us to draw conclusions about the basic political values of youth (freedom, legitimacy, a request for social justice), and revealed the attitude of young people to various forms of civic participation, as well as their willingness to be active in the political sphere.

The article analyzes the features of the current youth policy of the Russian Federation aimed at raising the political culture. Despite the current activities of the government institutions in the field under study, absenteeism, as well as the protest potential of the young people, remains at a fairly high level. In this regard, the government acknowledged the importance of forming a positive image of the state power in the eyes of young people and strengthen its influence in the sphere of forming loyal associations, which is not always positively perceived among the youth. The work focuses on the fact that raising the loyalty of youth organizations is one of the factors of political stability, both in case of internal turbulence and external influence. The authors also focus on the beneficiaries of youth protests. The authors paid special attention to the issue of forming political leadership among the youth and the absence of leaders expressing the opinions of young people in modern Russian politics. At the same time, youth protest as a social phenomenon lack class and in some cases ideological differences. The authors come to the conclusion that despite the steps taken by the government and political parties to involve Russian youth in the political agenda, the young people reject leaders of youth opinion imposed by the authorities, either cultivating nonparticipation in the electoral campagines or demonstrating latent protest voting.
