In modern terms, youth is a litmus test, expressing the existing internal problems and contradictions in the Russian society. The rapid growth of social and political tensions, including the active involvement of minors and young people in political protests, is largely due to the rapid deterioration of the economic situation, as well as to the actual and legal refusal of the authorities from a number of social obligations enshrined in the Constitution of the Russian Federation. There is a point of view that the main reason for the negative socio-economic trends in the development of Russia is the manifestation of political corruption, which is expressed including the irresponsibility of the authorities for the decisions taken, the exclusion from participation in the political process of active opponents of the current political regime, as well as the creation of organizational and legal conditions for the de facto "lifelong" replacement by leading politicians of their status quo in the political system of the Russian Federation. These negative trends are amplified, especially in terms of sanctions and international isolation began when the objective needs of development of the Russian Federation require of its development in accordance with the constitutional system: genuine democracy, succession and responsibility of the legislative, executive and judicial authorities for decisions. The article attempts to reveal the influence of political corruption on the spread of political extremism among young people, the predisposition of young people to active actions in the political sphere on the basis of sociological research.
