YOUTH AS THE BASIS FOR THE FORMATION OF THE DONBASS ELITE
https://doi.org/10.48137/23116412_2026_1_15
Abstract
The article is devoted to the analysis of the specifics of the formation of a new political elite in the Donetsk People’s Republic (DPR) through the recruitment of young people. The historical and modern channels
of integration from volunteer formations and public organizations (the “Young Republic”) to the institutions of the Russian youth policy system (the “Movement of the First”, the “Young Guard”) are considered. The key problems are identified and measures are proposed to improve the mechanisms of elite renewal to ensure sustainable integration of the region into the political space of Russia.
