Research is devoted to the student movement and student organizations in Moscow as components of it. Student movement comprises various student organizations whose frames can be different from each other. Therefore, the main question of this research is how student organizations, that protect students' rights, choose a frame, and what are its substantive characteristics. Researches on social movement, who use the frame theory approach, focus on frames and their mobilization potential, but still, there is no answer to how these frames are formed. Therefore, this work will attempt to address this critique. The research will be conducted in qualitative design with data collected by in-depth interviews.
