Abstract

Political world outlook as individual’s subjective reflection of politics and his or her own image therein is constructed by youth in the framework of the discourse produced by the political socialization subjects. The discourse reflects interaction of their socializing influences. Such is the proposed general approach to studying peculiarities of structuring youth political world outlook. The theory of social capital and its psychological component “socio-political capital” defined as a set of attitudes that support and regulate interpersonal interaction is applied as the theoretical basis for the empirical research of youth’s representations of social interaction in the political world outlook structure. The psycho-semantic stage of the empirical research whose respondents represented higher education institutions of the four regions of the country resulted in identifying basic semantic coordinates of the university students’ representations of social interaction. The identified semantic and disposition tendencies indicate that respondents’ representations are determined by the meaning of civic subjectivity, ambiguity of the semantics of civic identification and essence of civic involvement, portrayal of narrow radius of institutional and interpersonal trust.
