Some aspects of modern youth national identity

The author examines the problems of youth national identity with the help of psychoanalytic, sociological and cultural approaches. This is a reflection on the approach to the State Youth Policy and the search for mechanisms to improve its effectiveness. The problems of the modern young generation are associated with the search for their place in the system of national values. A special role in facilitating this belongs to the teaching staff of universities, which bears a considerable share of responsibility for the education of civic identity among students.
