“…Currently, the classic approach1 to determining the age characteristics of young people is being revised due to the processes of infantilization, emerging adulthood and continued maturation, erasing the upper boundaries of adolescence, prolonging youth-so it leads to the new nominations such as Big Babies, kidult, youthhood, middlescence, adultescents, middle youths, etc. [1,2].…”

“…According to the «theory of generations», modern youth is a heterogeneous group, whose representatives have mixed characteristics of two generations -Y and Z, millennials and centennials, Generation Me and Generation I, with varying chronological age limits. Thus, the Pew Research Center refers to the Y-generation those who were born from 1981 to 1996, to the Z -generationbetween 1997 and 2012 2 . As part of the Strauss -Howe generational theory, Centennials or Homeland Generation replaced the Millennials (born between 1982 and 2004) in 2005 and to a certain extent became the culmination of Millennial trends [3,4].…”

The relevance of the proposed research is, firstly, based on the complexity of youth as an object of study (indefinite age limits and a high level of youth individualization make it difficult to research the identification of practices). Secondly, how virtualization and mediatization effect new political practices in the digital space, including blogosphere, comparisoning it with continuing real political passivity of the Russian youth. As part of the study, digital political practices are considered as a form of interaction in the blogosphere resulting in the reproduction and transfiguration of political relations by young people, the acquisition of civic identity and the realization of civic agency. The purpose of the study is to identify the repertoire of digital political practices of young people. The focus of this study was youth YouTube-channels that occupy top places in the national rating. The study revealed that the youth environment is a non-politicized vlog segment with the audience from 5 to 14 million subscribers (opposed to 1-5 million for the vlogs, dedicated directly to political personalities and events). It was defined the repertoire of digital political practices of young people according to the analysis of video with Russian YouTube top bloggers. We may state their peripheral and marginal nature with the risk of destructive exposure.
