Abstract: The relevance of studying the problem of the attractiveness of the city in the assessments of student youth lies in the need to understand the factors influencing the choice of place of residence and study of the younger generation. In the context of globalization and migration processes, it is important to identify which aspects of the urban environment, infrastructure and social life attract students, as well as what problems they see in their city. Today, the phenomenon of social attractiveness is becoming more and more significant, as individuals begin to form a certain social rating in the system of any interactions, which affects their choice of moving, shopping, etc. For students, the assessment of attractiveness, as a rule, is of particular importance, since many medium-sized cities during the academic year are literally filled with students seeking to get an education or to gain a solid foothold and develop in this area. The study was implemented through a combination of two data collection methods – a mass survey and a focus group. The sample consisted of students from various higher educational institutions of the city of Barnaul (n=212). The sample is based on a system of cluster selection of respondents. The prevailing part of the student youth believes that the assessment of the attractiveness of the city of Barnaul is above average, due to its high geographical attractiveness, combining the advantages of forest-steppe and foothill zones. Social, tourism and innovation components have medium attractiveness, while economic attractiveness is low due to limited career opportunities. However, with efforts at the regional level, it is possible to increase the attractiveness of the city and prevent migration outflow. The overall assessment of the attractiveness of the city of Barnaul is at an above average level. This assessment is predetermined by the fact that there is a high degree of attractiveness within the geographical component. Barnaul combines all the advantages of the forest-steppe zone and the foothill zone, and the combination of these zones makes it possible to offset the disadvantages of aridity as the main criterion of the forest-steppe zone, as well as sharp temperature drops and recurrent frosts.

Abstract: Transformations and reforms in all areas of Russian society have led to the social transformation, including an increase in the number of conflict situations. The level and quality of social well-being of people depend on their attitude, willingness to actively participate in social, economic and political processes related to both personal, family and public life. The growing social crisis has caused a significant increase in interest in the problems of social well-being or disadvantage, both for an individual and for society as a whole. In his work, the authors study in depth the impact of social disruption on the occurrence of conflicts among young people. Conflict situations often arise in youth communications, which emphasizes the need to identify and effectively resolve them. Research aimed at studying the factors of social well-being and finding mechanisms for solving social contradictions are becoming especially important for reducing the level of disadvantage. The study was conducted using a selective method. The sample consists of 348 respondents, namely, students of six higher educational institutions: AltSU, AltGPU, ASAU, AltGTU, ASMU, BUI of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Russia. The sample size was determined by the researcher's capabilities. The method of selecting units of the general population was a quota sample, the selection parameters were the higher educational institution and the gender of the respondents. Thus, it can be concluded that the social disadvantage of young people can enhance their conflict potential. It, in turn, can result in protests, which will negatively affect the state of the whole society. Based on the theoretical analysis and the results of empirical research, we have made the following conclusions:
1. A third of young people rated their conflict potential as high.
2. According to their subjective assessments, 15% of students stated low social well-being.
3. In the areas that determine the quality of people's lives, 64.2% of respondents who classified themselves as socially disadvantaged faced conflicts.
4. More active and protesting forms of defending their opinions (participation in rallies and strikes) are chosen to a greater extent by young people who are in conditions of social disadvantage.
5. Socially well-off youth prefer to defend their interests in the form of filing complaints.

Abstract: In the modern world, there is a significant number of collisions in the Internet space, which occur not only in interpersonal communication online, but also on various social networks with a large number of participants. Almost any social network that supports the function of discussion, commenting on the information provided, allows you to observe a number of pre-conflict and conflict situations. Despite the fact that the space in which communication takes place is virtual, the consequences of conflicts in it can be more than real, both for an individual and for a number of participants. Conflict situations can have an impact on the daily life of opponents and collectively affect social processes in society. In his work, the author studies in depth the nature of conflicts in social networks. The study was implemented through a quantitative method of collecting information – a survey in the form of a questionnaire. The general totality of the study was made up of students from Barnaul who are users of social networks. The study was conducted using a selective method. The sample totals 367 respondents. The sample size was determined by the capabilities of the researcher. A single-stage sampling was used, the selection unit was specific students. According to the results of the study, the following conclusions were made.
Firstly, the vast majority of students use social networks every day, but only half of them have participated or are involved in conflicts. Secondly, students most often conflict on social networks with strangers and in community comments. Thirdly, trolling is still one of the important problems of social networks. A significant part of the (interviewed) students became victims of trolls. Fourth, most of the conflicts in social networks in which students participate are short-lived and occur through verbal debates. Fifth, most students choose a more "peaceful" behavior strategy.
Sixth, many students determine the beginning of a conflict in a social network by negative emotions from interaction and consider the presence of physical distance to be the main feature of the described conflicts.

Abstract: The subject of the study is the sources of protest moods of modern student youth. The research interest in protest moods is due to the fact that they are a latent stage of open protest actions, and their study provides an opportunity to regulate open protest: reducing its negative effects and increasing the positive ones. This article pays special attention to such a social group as youth. This is due to the fact that it is young people who are most often the main participants in protest actions due to their more acute perception of the imperfections of society and inflated expectations from themselves and others. The novelty of the study was to understand protest moods as one of the stages of the development of social protest. A methodology was developed and a sociological study was conducted among students of the Altai Territory, the purpose of which was to characterize the main sources of protest moods in the student environment.
