Russian Orthodox Church: model of social education of youth (axiology, methodology and social technologies)

Introduction. The article examines the problem of searching for effective mechanisms for educating the younger generation and its social integration in the context of the discrepancy between the model of youth socialization and the changed conditions of social relations, which are affected by the ongoing "new wars" and escalating social conflicts. The purpose of the study is to reconstruct and substantiate the model of youth education of the Russian Orthodox Church as a special methodology and technology for the socialization of the younger generation, which has significant potential for the use of its elements in the system of secular institutions of social education.
