https://doi.org/10.26425/2309-3633-2025-13-3-164-175

Abstract

The article is devoted to a comprehensive analysis of patriotism as a key value of Russian youth in modern conditions. The theoretical aspects of the concept are considered through the interdisciplinary prism of philosophy, sociology, political science, and pedagogy. In addition, various concepts of patriotism of Russian and foreign scientists are analysed. Special attention is paid to the transformation of its semantic content in the youth environment, where traditional values are combined with pragmatic orientations towards personal development and social justice. Based on sociological data, the main challenges to the formation of patriotic consciousness are identified: impact of globalisation, socio-economic problems, intergenerational gap, crisis of trust in government institutions, and transformation of family education. The dual role of the media, which can both weaken and strengthen patriotic attitudes, is emphasised. A systematic model for strengthening patriotism is proposed, including modernisation of educational programmes, development of civic institutions, and implementation of a balanced state policy. It is concluded that it is necessary to combine traditional and innovative approaches, taking into account the digital transformation of society and peculiarities of youth consciousness. Particular importance is attached to practice-oriented forms of education, project activities, and digitalisation of patriotic education. The materials of the article are valuable for specialists in the field of education, youth policy, and sociology, offering practice-oriented solutions for the formation of conscious patriotism in new socio-cultural conditions.
