Abstract

The pressing issue of modern society is to ensure its sustainable development. One of the conditions is the formation of the legal consciousness of young people and the prevention of mass protests. In the protesting crowd, strong emotions and unconscious instincts become the main regulators of behavior, hence the protesters are unable to resist the impressive influence of the "leader" proposing radical ideas. Research methods: a comparative psychological analysis of the protesting crowd across the world and Russia, the study of the case-study of three protest demonstrations in Moscow and St. Petersburg. The results of the study suggest that modern youth in the protesting crowd in any country behave in the same way. The main danger of unauthorized protests is radicalism, when protesters turn from peaceful activities and slogans to clashes with law enforcement forces. The modern young generation is under the influence of a huge amount of information received from the media, first of all, social networks. This draws the attention of leaders of radical organizations in spreading destructive ideology. The establishment of a system of legal education for the modern young generation, knowledge of the legal standards, and relevant rules of conduct by young people helps to prevent the illegal behavior of young people and their participation in unauthorized rallies. Due to the influence of information technology, Internet users are rapidly transforming into protesting crowds. Some young people are not content with the social and economic conditions of life, which can create protest moods. Prevention of unauthorized protest actions of young people should be aimed at forming an advanced legal consciousness among young people. It is necessary to expand legal knowledge scope in the school system of secondary and higher education
