Abstract

Minors, being active users of advanced communication technologies and joining various virtual communities or communicating with remote users, face numerous threats and risks. One of these threats is propaganda spread by terrorists and violent extremists. Minors who do not have sufficient level of knowledge and skills are not able to objectively assess destructive information, and involvement in such communities leads to the devaluation of moral and ethical foundations, loss of family values, and destruction of personality. After that, they are easily involved in extremist activities. In this regard, state policy plays an important role in addressing issues of ideological confrontation with extremist organizations and propaganda they spread. In this study, the authors assume that the creation of an effective system of ideological security will neutralize the spread of radical extremism ideas among minors, and contribute to prevention and overcoming of this negative phenomenon. The main purpose of the study is to investigate the key directions of the formation of ideological security of minors in the Russian Federation. The study showed that the Strategy of Ideological Security should include cultural and social-communication technologies for the formation of internal stability of the individual, family, nation, society, the creation of the ideological environment safe from political, national, religious extremism that provokes violence in various forms, including terrorism. The results obtained in the study will provide a comprehensive approach to the solution of the problem of effective counteraction to the spread of extremist manifestations among the youth in the Russian Federation. The efforts of the nationwide Strategy of Ideological Security should be aimed at combating the ideological principles of extremism.
