Popis: 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.
