Scientific research of the process of formation of the state social policy

Анотація

The state social policy is a determining factor in the development of the social sphere and the satisfaction of the social needs of society. The quality of this policy is particularly important in this context. It depends on many factors, including the optimality of the process of its development. It is worth noting that the author did not set the task to systematize existing models of social policy or to characterize them on the basis of comparative analysis. The purpose of the research is to address a procedural aspect – a structural and functional analysis of the process of developing social policy by the relevant subjects of its formation and, on this basis, to determine approaches to current research directions in this area. The scientific novelty lies in the fact that the object of “social policy” is considered from an understudied scientific perspective. On the basis of the analysis of the norms of domestic legislation and political and legal practice, a systematic analysis was carried out, which showed the positive and negative sides of the process of formation of state policy in the social sphere. This, in turn, gave the author an opportunity to identify problematic aspects that require thorough scientific study in order to optimize the specified process. In the process of working on the article, the following methods were used: a content analysis of the research source base; a method of system analysis aimed at specification and improvement of the conceptual and terminological apparatus; a structural-functional analysis made it possible to understand the functionality and structure of the social policy entities and to identify the shortcomings of the existing mechanism for the development of this policy. The conducted research made it possible to outline the subject field of scientific research in the formation of the state social policy, in particular, to single out the following research directions: the process of formation of the state social policy; forecasting the impact of the state social policy; development of the state policy documents; analysis of the state policy and strategic planning; state strategic planning; the process of implementation of the state social policy; monitoring of state policy implementation; evaluation of the state policy.The state social policy is a determining factor in the development of the social sphere and the satisfaction of the social needs of society.
