Abstract

The article raises one of the eternal questions: what is the meaning of life and its value? The answers to this question in all its methodological diversity were formed in the philosophical scientific tradition, which became the basis for the development of the sociology of life and the study of the value of life from the standpoint of sociological interpretation. So far sociology does not have a clear conceptual field for study this problem. With the concept of the sociology of life formed by the Russian sociological school, the author seeks to show that the value and meaning of life can be empirically interpreted and takes as a basis the consumer context that determines at the present stage the goals, principles and meanings of life among Russian youth, spiritual reproduction, but aspiring in the process of its vital self-realization to achieve life success in terms of consumption. This is the general trend of the development of modern society, in the wake of which the Russian youth build their life plans and demonstrate the significance of life as a life in consumption, rather than creation. To get out of this format of rut, the youth will be only in the terms of changing the very paradigm of social development.
Keywords:
the youth, life, values, value of life, consumption, consumerist ideology, sociology of life
