Abstract
The legal foundation of a society is the basis of its existence and effective functioning. The legal consciousness occupies a special place in it. It acts as an integral part of people’s worldview, their life orientations, values and priorities. In Russia, the dynamics of the ongoing changes in the political and legal sphere is largely determined by the rethinking of the events of the recent past and the attempt by various forces of influence to comprehend the present adequately. Such close attention to the phenomenon of legal awareness is due to many changes taking place in the country and society. The consciousness of people in Russia is multipolar. Both internal and external factors influence on its formation, more often they are of a destructive nature. For example, the role of the hybrid war, which has been waged against Russia throughout its recent history and in which young people are actively involved, is great.

Summary
Попытки представителей власти и определенной части научной интеллигенции поиска причин сложившихся форм общественного сознания в далеких глубинах отечественной истории, как правило, обречены на неудачу. Изучение процесса формирования правосознания молодежи и студентов важно еще и потому, что само это понятие имеет несколько составляющих. Важным представляется понимание правовой жизни общества, критериями оценки которой может быть, с одной стороны, формирование нормативно-правовой базы страны, направленной на обеспечение всей полноты прав и свобод граждан (каждого индивида и отдельных социальных групп).
