Erickson and many others who have made a significant contribution to development of various areas of social science, had a powerful impact on the development of the sociology of youth. Largely under the influence of this field of science obre la the modern form.
Direction of the sociological study of youth. With a certain degree of conditionality inherent in any classification, but still include the following areas in the sociological study of youth.
1. Psychoanalytic. Scientists psychoanalytic orientation be based on the output from the psychoanalytic concept of the way of life of the individual. Therefore, the definition of youth are based primarily on age psychophysical characteristics of the young man on the findings of three. Freud developed his students and neofreydistskogo direction (R.Benedikt, L.Foyer, L.Sheleff, E.Erikson). In particular, their efforts to further develop the theory was “Oedipus complex” policy, the Torah explains the nature of intergenerational conflicts, conceptualized causes of aggressiveness youth performances against the existing order, as well as other forms of sublimation of its energy as a source of development.
Epigenetic principle E. Erickson allowed to present the development of man as they age steady overcoming personal “identity crises” caused by a mismatch between social requirements ments of psychosocial maturity and personality. Ruth Benedict showed that at each stage of individual experiences focused on the impact of society, forming it a certain type of social and psychological maturity, ie the “social character” inherent in each particular society stvu.

Consideration of youth as a sociological category that determines not only the boundaries of age, but also a specific social status, especially the consciousness and behavior of young people, to encourage in-depth understanding of youth problems, differentiated by the go-to young people as inherently heterogeneous and yet specifically a particular social group. It includes a selection of different layers, detect tion based on studies of their specific social fabric, features of consciousness and behavior of certain categories of young people was of great importance for the scientific substantiation of a differentiated approach to the educative studies with youth. This largely determined the emergence of youth policy in a direction on the full and harmonious development of the younger generation. And while the idea itself, in its final form, was quite utopian, yet attempts to implement it as a researcher-tion, and in the practical forms undoubtedly had important results.
Experience and knowledge of the impetus for the emerging in the 70s systematic study of the process of socialization of young people, their age-tion of periodization. Sociological study were not only the forms and methods of educational work, but the process of socialization of young people as a whole, and as such its main categories, as young workers, farmers, students, students, and intellectuals. It was this way into the deep layers of the consciousness of the youth, the most complete disclosure of individual young people and contribute to the best of his self-actualization, to overcome his alienation from society.
