Summary/Abstract: This paper deals with extremism representing a whole society problem. The expansion of the manifestationsof extremism with young people can be influenced not only by the unequal economic, social and cultural developments of theindividual regions in a particular country, but also by gradual creating branches of various extremist organisations. Though theage of young people does not represent a sufficient reason for becoming members of an extremist movement, this paper primarilyfocuses on them as in their age they are very sensitive to get involved into an extremist movement and accept its ideas. Just theinstability of young people in perceiving world opinions, their inadequate social-psychological maturity, remarkable looking fora place in their life and insufficient perceiving social protest risks represent a necessity of working with young people to preventthem from becoming the most vulnerable group.
