Studies of protest attitudes among young people have recently acquired great scientific research significance. Youth protest activity is an indicator of public sentiment and reflects the level of socio-political tension in society. Within the framework of this study, the main research task is to study the nature and dynamics of the protest attitudes of modern Russian youth, to identify the level of awareness of young people about protests in the country, their willingness to participate in them, the opinions of young people about possible drivers of protest activity. Basic research methods: sociological questionnaire survey of Russian youth aged 14-30 (n = 2302), focus group. As a result of the study, it was found that an extremely small percentage of young people have not heard about the protest activity in the country; the majority have acquaintances who have taken part in protest actions over the past three years. At the same time, the survey revealed that about 20% of respondents express their readiness to take part in protest events in their city. Thus, we can note the high protest potential of Russian youth.

A significant number of researchers consider civic engagement within the school as a factor in the future involvement of adults in democratic processes. In this regard, the practice of civic participation of schoolchildren is a topical subject of research. The article examines the results of an empirical sociological study devoted to the study of the practice of civic participation of schoolchildren, identifying the frequency of participation in various forms and determining their factors. The purpose of the study is to identify attitudes, practices and preferred forms of civic participation of Russian schoolchildren. The research task also involves comparing the civic engagement of Russian schoolchildren and young people in general. Data collection methods: a questionnaire survey of Russian youth aged 14-30 (2026 people were interviewed, including 403 schoolchildren), an expert interview (30 experts were interviewed). The study has found that schoolchildren highly rate their level of civic engagement and take part in various forms of civic engagement. Only 9.6% of respondents did not take part in any of the considered forms of civic engagement. Most of the civic engagement remains inaccessible for schoolchildren due to their limited financial capabilities and resources, as well as insufficient involvement of young people in the work of public associations and organizations. Despite the high emotional involvement in civic engagement, schoolchildren have insufficient resources and knowledge for civic participation and are poorly informed about the possibility of participating in institutionalized structures of involvement (social movements, groups, etc.).
