ABSTRACT
The basic idea of this book is to present the process of upbringing of youth in the North Caucasus in the broad context of socialization in transition society. At the outset, we should make clear that this work is wide-ranging and does not go into depth on, say, details of the education system. We aim rather to present a mosaic landscape viewed from different angles, and consider it particularly important to present the voices of the region's youth regarding the situation. This book is about how young people in the twenty-first century, in the period of transition from school to adulthood, evaluate the role of various actors in their upbringing and the importance they have for socialization.
