Ramūnas Keršys (Master's paper advisor Doc. Jolita Kašalynienė). Youth participation in bringing out youth's politics. Master paper. V.: VU Department of Social Work, 2009, 87 p. SUMMARY YOUTH PARTICIPATION IN BRINGING OUT REGIONAL YOUTH'S POLITICS Regional youth politics' formation and accomplishing is attached to institutions of local administration. Local administration's youth politics' efficiency and quality depends on dialogue's assurance between institutions of local administration and young people, when discussing general questions that are related to youth. The quality of youth politics' bringing out process is based in youth politics foundation's statutes which strengthen in parity, subsidiary, interdepartmental coordination, participation, information, self-government, voluntariness, communication and collaboration principles. Investigation problem - non effective youth politics' formation and bringing out system's adaptation in local administrations, when ensuring youth's participation in the process of making decisions in today's problems. The main purpose in this master: find out local administration politic's formation and bringing out system's functionation when drawing in young people into the process of making decisions in today's problems. Investigation object - youth's participation while bringing out regional youth's politics. The investigation included 32 local administration's systems, which form and bring out youth's politics. During the investigation youth politics' principles were analyzed in local administrations, youth local administrations' council activity matter's productivity, youth matter coordination and youth's local administration council matter member opinions about youth's participation in settled things. The main investigation's method - completing a questionnaire. Data was organized in descriptive statistic's method. While trying to attain a bigger objectivity, data was analyzed in distributing local administration by their size, primary sources were checked. When investigation was finished, it was clear, that hypothesis is right, that local administration's youth's politic's system doesn't ensure active youth's participation in making decisions about general problems, that involve the young ones. As established, that that predetermines many factors: too narrow legal local administration's youth's matters' council's formation reglamentation, youth's participation's restriction in legal bases, weak youth's organization potential in local administrations and also their representational power, lack of youth's politics' system information, youth's migration, lack of motivation and competition to participate, regional youth's organization council's absence or in activance and other. As established, that youth's participation's activity is based on young man's self motivation. It is orientated more into recognition, self competition acquisition, becoming stronger in social surroundings than youth's interest's representation. As shown by investigation, local administration's institutions don't evaluate these aspects as much as needed. These insights let evaluate more effective and plan jobs to make youth's politics' system better, so youth could participate even more.

The problems of socialization and social integration of the contemporary young generation are analysed in the article. Insufficient learning motivation, dissatisfaction in current school life and refusing to go to school, inability to make rational plans for future (learning, career, family, etc.), finding ways how to realize them, and finding ways of socially acceptable living are the topics which are of high importance in many modern countries and in Lithuania too. The aim of the research was to enclose the main methodological premises enabling to optimize current development of human resources in many societies of today. The role of the educational system in the process of socialization is under discussion: could it be in action in future as before, and if the answer is "yes", how it should be developed for more efficient performance? It is decided that we do not have enough personal and social courage and methods for creation of absolutely new system of education up to now. In such case we discuss only about some innovative ways of thinking and restructuring of the existing educational system. The main conclusions of the presented research are the following: permanent changes in societies call for making new goals and content of the socialization process. The countries under political, economical, cultural and educational transition (as Lithuania is) must find new ways creating closer social cooperation between local, national and global levels and different institutions of education. The system of education should be integrated with the social partners and society's institutions in much more extent. Closer ties should be developed among basic education and vocational education, and school, family, local community and the world of work are expected to form new and more efficient connections. Making new strategies for young generation socialization knowledge of various social and humanitarian sciences should be united in much more extent than it used to be, and contribution of economists and politicians is necessary. There is clear need for youth's socialization research and creating of new social structures based on systematic approach in Lithuania. Forms of international cooperation in establishing new models of youth social mobility and employment are mentioned as potentially productive also.

The aim of the article is to give a social portrait of Lithuanian youth in the context of youth policy, and to consider such unsettled segments as unemployment, emigration (migration), the attitude towards family, social participation in societal possibilities, and the strengthening of intergenerational solidarity. These problematic segments cause the social exclusion of young people, thus requiring an appropriate strategy for training professionals who work with young people and who can develop models for the positive (skilful) socialisation of young people. The article evaluates Lithuanian and European youth policy guidelines and success in solving problems, as well as the response to public expectations regarding participation in future life. It provides an analysis of existing feasibility studies that reveal the current situation, and insights into the question. The results obtained foster the formulation of a strategy for training social professionals focused on youth work. The article concentrates on a new European Union programme, the 'European Solidarity Corps', which aims to give young people opportunities to contribute to local and global problem-solving within the framework of personal and professional career design for youth. It has been prepared within the framework of the project 'Social Professions for Youth Education in the Context of European Solidarity'*, with the participation of Latvian, Lithuanian, Polish and Swedish universities that deliver programmes for training social professionals.
