Abstract

The article examines the most important problem of the formation of civic identity of students within the framework of children's social movements, especially the Russian movement of schoolchildren. In the theoretical part of the article, as a result of the analysis of a number of works of foreign and domestic researchers, the definition of the concept of civic identity is derived, including as part of a person's social identity; its significant differences from ethnic and national identity, its connection with the concept of citizenship, as well as the structural components of the concept of “civil identity” are considered. The article provides a description of the research methodology devoted to the study of the degree of formation of the components of civic identity among students of the 7th-9th grades of general educational organizations in Moscow (depending on their affiliation with the Russian movement of schoolchildren, any other children's social organization or lack of such affiliation). A hypothesis is also put forward about the significant role in the formation of the civic identity of students of the very possibility of their participation in project activities. According to the results of the study, it is concluded that belonging to any children's social organization has a positive effect on students' understanding of their civil rights, freedoms and responsibilities, on the separation of values existing in the state, as well as on the level of responsibility for their moral choice and the level of tolerance in relation to moral choosing another person. It is suggested that the activity component of civic identity among students who are members of the Russian schoolchildren movement is best developed due to the organization's use of project activities as the main way to facilitate the transfer of values to students, necessary for the formation of civic identity
