| Summary: | In the modern period, the minors’ involvement in illegal activities via Internet technologies is becoming an instrument for political propaganda and agitation of many people, including minors. This is a phenomenon of modern period of social life. The participation of minors in unauthorized protests, as an exclusively urban phenomenon, causes particular attention, since it is accompanied by a large public response and predetermines the development of deviant attitudes of minors. Objectives of the study: an attempt to identify the protest potential of minors in some regions of the Ural Federal District in an urban environment; determining the degree of influence of Internet technologies on the involvement of minors in protest activities. More than half of the respondents are facing political agitation in social networks; only 4-13% of minors feel the impact on formation of public position via the Internet; protest potential of minors can be estimated at 22% in the Tyumen Region, 14% in the Khanty-Mansi Autonomous Area, and 8% in the Yamal-Nenets Autonomous Area. The protest activity in regions under study in return for remuneration increases. Ratio of surveyed participants indicating that they have faced with political campaign via internet technologies (50-60%) and ratio of participants who have not faced (4-13%) could signal to the indirect impact. |
