Abstract

The relevance of the study is determined by the growth of international terrorism and extremism in recent decades. With the growing dynamics of social change, it is important to quickly respond to both positive and negative changes. In a postindustrial society, the most important issue is the speed of decision making. Monitoring of important changes in society can partially solve this problem. Monitoring of social attitudes allows to identify risk groups by identifying extremist attitudes to prevent the further spread of extremist ideology among young people in the early stages of its development. In the course of the project implementation, the approved scientific and methodological support and tools for sociological monitoring of extremist attitudes and identification of extremist behavior risk groups among young people will be obtained. This scientific and methodological support and tools will be used for early diagnosis and prevention of extremism. The scientific novelty of the project is to develop a new approach to the prevention of extremism among young people, which, unlike the existing approaches, emphasizes the prevention of the spread of extremism at the early stages of its development. The study has a high scientific and practical significance, as it allows to get ready-to-use scientific and methodological support for the sociological monitoring of extremist attitudes among young people for political decision-making processes in the field of improving youth and anti-extremist policies. The paper describes the result of developing a conceptual model of digital monitoring of extremist attitudes and identifying risk groups in the youth environment. A conceptual model can be represented in the form of a scheme that includes four interconnected modules: a theoretical and methodological module, a methodical module, an empirical module, and an analytical module. Four stages of monitoring are described, and the main activities at each stage and their main results are highlighted. The basic elements that constitute the scientific and methodological support of sociological monitoring of extremist attitudes and the identification of risk groups in the youth environment are described. Expected results of the study are formulated and substantiation of their scientific significance in theoretical and applied terms is given.
