Lietuvos moksleivių nuostatos Europos intgracijos atžvilgiu

ENThe attitudes of Lithuanian adolescents towards Europe and the European Integration compared with the attitudes of their peers in neighbouring countries on the basis of the data of the Comparative European survey on Historical consciousness and Political Attitudes among adolescents „Youth and History“ are being analysed. The attitudes of Lithuanian youth towards the European Integration are among the most positive and less critical ones in the East and East-Central European region. But these attitudes are in high degree conventional, abstract and sometimes contradictory. About 1\3 of adolescents express more active and consistent attitudes towards Europe, supported by other political convictions. The active attitudes are in some degree connected with higher social strata of their parents, some peculiarities of these attitudes are also connected with ethnic identity of students. But the opinions prevailing in ideologies and political culture of the country seem to have the greatest impact on student’s attitudes.
