СУЧАСНІ КОНЦЕПТУАЛЬНІ ПІДХОДИ ДО ПРОБЛЕМИ СОЦІАЛІЗАЦІЇ МОЛОДІ

In  the article innovative humanitarian and personal orientated paradigm of 
socialization is examined. Youth socialization as an integrated process of 
organization and self-organization (self-reflection) in rapidly changing social life is 
possible if  there is  a proper acknowledgement of person priority as a subject of 
social relation. 
The period of socialization – between childhood and early adulthood end – is a 
period of rapid assimilation of the elements of the social environment by increasing 
the speed of  information increment and expansion of its diversity. Youth age most 
susceptible to borrowing innovations in the field of consumer standards  and
advanced technologies. Our society is much more distant from the  “civilized 
standards” in the field of engineering, management, organization.
Prospects of further activation is the problem of the youth in the society such 
as intellectual and professional behavior as a form of socio-demographic, socio-psychological and pedagogical support of modern scientific and technological 
progress. It is crucial thus to the ability to develop innovations without 
compromising the absorption of long-term socio-cultural norms and values, the 
ability to navigate to the man-made environment  –  without compromising the 
overall cultural integration.
The most perspective way of creation of  a  new social and pedagogical 
methodology is synthesis and integrated unity of different methodological 
approaches.
