Popis: | One of the main factors causing the failure of reforms has been the narrowness of the social base of their implementation, including the fact that a considerable portion of young people have been kept out of the process. Reforms can be successful only if young people take active part in them. Moreover, it is essential to assess young people correctly. "The task of researchers," wrote K. Mannheim, "is to explain what society can give and what society can expect from young people (its hidden resource)" [1]. This task takes on topical form when the same question keeps coming up over and over: "Where will young people go? Whom will they follow?" It is essential that sociologists regularly study the sociocultural attitudes and value orientations of young people, their sense of social well-being, and their attitudes toward the reforms. |
