The transformations globalize the vision of young people, which is based on the principles and standards of democracy, reflects the present political climate and takes the experience of previous generations into account. The purpose of the study was a detailed political analysis of the essence, priorities, and features of the political socialization development of modern Russian youth, and the development of recommendations for the optimal activity of youth policy management institutions in the Russian Federation.

Therewith, it is necessary to promote an intolerance to any hostility and violence that contradicts the civilized forms of human life. This base allows performing the role of an active political subject of transformations in Russian society.
