The spontaneous mass formation as a social and cultural mechanism of youth integration

Abstract

The research is interested in the transformations of informal and mass movements (events) as a socio-psychological and socio-cultural mechanism of integration in ХХІ century. Theoretical ideas of masses and crowds, of the individual’s social functions in and through masses and crowds are traced and interpreted. The historical mechanisms for regulating mass movements are classifi ed and their contemporary analogies are designed. The differences between masses and crowds are also sought after in their newly emerged activities during the last decades of opening borders, globalization and technologization. At the empirical level, the educational and socio-pedagogical projections of phenomena are sought after by studying young people’s participation in mass events. The aim is to forecast trends, to predict any risks and to discuss appropriate attitudes and behavioral models of participants, experts and any other interested parties.
