LEISURE OF YOUTH AS ONE OF PRIORITIES

THE RUSSIAN YOUTH POLICY

 

The youth is always relevant to state and society. The role of youth in society can be both positive and negative. It is the activity of young people is one of the sources for public disorder, often resulting in a reduction of social security for the whole society, as happened in 2014 in Ukraine, and in 2015 in France. Antisocial youth is a risk factor for the state and society. But the organization's impact on youth in different countries has differences in the way of interaction. 

Russian society tends to high degree of activity, involvement of the influence of society on the socialization of youth. This tendency has a Foundation in the culture of the society, the history of the country informed choice in the last decade. A waiver of such influence in the years of the systemic crisis of 1990 and 2000 was accompanied by many other factors, but in social consciousness became the reasons of sharp increase in antisocial and deviant behavior in children, the rejuvenation of the criminal environment.

Recent years, the society and the state are equal in the recognition of the need actively to influence the attitudes and socialization of youth. The problem is the loss of social infrastructure that provide the expected effect. The last decade occurs repeatedly change tools and agents of social influence on young people. Were tested, both old and new social organization. Among them: the General education system, further education, social aid institutions, leisure centres, youth centres.

The main risk group, according to many authors, is the age group from 14 to 17 years. This age period is characterized as "marginal period of socialization", which has a number of features and changes that promote illegal activities. Young people at this age are characterized by a certain social status, civil rights and responsibilities, however, unlike adults, their social rights and responsibilities is still limited. At the same time, numerous studies Russian and foreign scientists clearly show that the direct relationship between the level of formation of personal qualities and commit unlawful acts is not observed. An important factor in the development of the offence is the social surrounding, the environment.

Difficulties associated with the development of the adolescent, require more effort both in terms of time and content. The level of social development of the adolescent requires a long-term systematic and organized effort, which may not always provide a social living environment. Unfortunately, modern teen carries out vital functions in several social environments, the impact of each of which are aligned with one another and may even be oppositely directed. At the same time this age is a sensitive period for personal development and well organized influence on the adolescent requires less effort to change his behavior, this is determined by the efficiency of the impact of social environment on adolescent.

Despite huge efforts and funds spent on crime control youth, crime Russian Teens remains at the same level for a long period – more than 12 years. Dynamics of public financial investment reflects poorly on the amount involved in the crime Russian teenagers. But the situation is gradually improving. The results manifested on a qualitative level – is changed to decrease the severity of the wrongful action and decreases the adaptation of adolescents to the criminal environment. The volatility of the situation due to the General decrease in the quality of education, which inevitably reduces the level of reflection, of control behavior among adolescents from disadvantaged families.

In this regard, much attention is paid to the primary prevention of delinquency among adolescents aged 14 to 17 years. The basis for primary prevention lies with the organization of leisure activity of teenagers of group of "risk", defined as being in socially dangerous situation. The primary function of crime prevention is identified as one of the main youth centers that implement a leisure activity. The basic strategy of activity of such centers is the assumption that teenagers are more contact with employees representing close by age category, are more open and receptive. Therefore, employees of the centres themselves refer to age up to 30 years or a little more.

Analysis of the activity of one of the youth centers of Krasnoyarsk involving various methods studies have shown that primary prevention for the staff of the centre are not sufficiently mastered the work and is implemented with certain difficulties and problems. Center author of self-determination of youth of Krasnoyarsk implements a number of public events with youth and it is anticipated that carries out targeted work with young people at risk.

The results of the research activities of youth centres in the area of primary prevention of delinquency among young people identified a number of problems that hindered efforts to primary prevention of offenses among youth. The problems are complex in the centre's activities.

You can designate a number of areas that will allow to raise efficiency of activity centres:

• First, change the concept of the information system task force (passive leisure adolescents and youth).

• Secondly, to develop volunteer types and forms of activities, as the most responsible social-psychological age-related needs of adolescents and youth.

• Third, to develop a program of personal growth for the employees of the centre in accordance with the competences, necessary for the implementation of the objectives of the centre.

• Fourth, to activate the diagnostic use of social technologies, particularly in the phase of the feedback with the task force.

• Fifth, to individualize work with adolescents group SOP (adolescents at risk) as a potential group of social tension in regard to offences.

While correcting the activities of the youth centres in these areas can be expected to increase the effectiveness in involving adolescents and youth in constructive leisure-time activity Pro-social character and its long-term effect.
