Abstract: The article discusses the popular science theme of the Soviet journal “Technique for Youth” in an ideological aspect. The magazine is one of the significant cultural constants of the Russian popular science periodicals and originates in 1933, goes through the difficult history of the Soviet era, goes through no less difficult periods of the formation of post-Soviet Russian society and is being published steadily at present. For many generations of Soviet youth, the magazine became the first serious school for familiarizing with the engineering world, introduced the latest in scientific and technological progress, taught high school students to dream and see themselves in the world of science and invention. At the same time, the Soviet period in the history of the journal is inextricably linked with its functioning as part of a total ideological discourse in aspects of directed propaganda work with young generations. To reveal the features of the ideological design of popular science topics on the pages of the journal, his issues for 1971 were selected. The beginning of the 1970s in Soviet history is associated with the time of the progressive scientific, technical and institutional development of the USSR, which has not yet passed into the controversial era of stagnation of the 1980s. Almost all articles and materials of the journal of this time are more or less penetrated by historical optimism.

Keywords: the journal “Technique for Youth”, popular science literature, ideological discourse
