Investigation of the Social Factors of Development of Society in the Territories with Transforming Environment

Abstract

A study of the current state and trends of many countries and regions in conditions of transforming the political, social and market environment leads to the conclusion that most of the territories and their populations are severely affected by negative factors, leading to the deterioration of living conditions, violation of rights and freedoms, reduction of opportunities and redistribution of desires to satisfy the most simple needs. In advanced economies, these processes reveal themselves in the form of declining trends in household incomes, violation of trade relations, diversion of capital from the sphere of economic development to the sphere of military spending, curtailing of social programs. Most vividly modern social and economic cataclysms show themselves in Eastern Europe and the Middle East. Literature review and problem statementThe problem of management of the complex characteristics that are used to create an enabling environment for economic and social development was raised by many scientists [Amosha, Kharazishvili, Liashenko, Kvilinskyi 2016, pp.19-34; Babkin 2013, pp. 138-148; Baranovskyi, Girchenko, Serdiukova 2017, pp. 20-33; Blagodarnyi, Tolmachova, Kvilinskyi 2014, pp. 30-37; Bondaryeva, Kravchenko, Mieshkov 2015, pp. 236-244;Bukharova 2012 Bukharova , pp. 1843 Bukharova -1849 Dementiev, Vishnevskiy, 2010, pp. 81-95; Ivanov, Liashenko, Kamińska, Kvilinskyi, 2017, pp. 86-101; Ivanov, Lyashenko, Tolmachova, Kvilinskyi 2016, pp. 9-34 Investigation of the social factors of development of society in the territories with transforming environmentConstantly changing environmental conditions lead to the necessity of regular updates, enhancements and adaptation of the existing approaches to the investigation of the development of societies that live in different territories. As a result, the purpose of the paper is to identify the main social factors that affect the vital activity of society at the present stage of development of territories which have unstable socio-economic and political environment. Specific trends, reflecting the state of social and economic processes in the countries of the evolving political and legal systems are considered (on the example of the Donetsk region). The components of the social and cultural environment as factors of forming a system of vital activity of the society are determined: the level of development of education, medicine, social infrastructure facilities, the environmental aspects, the social hierarchy and relationships in the community, the criminal and military risks, the demographic trends, the level of unemployment and informal employment. The authors developed a methodology of an expert assessment of the importance of the factors of forming the system of vital activity of the society. A set of recommendations for the coordinated impact on the economic and social processes in the conditions of transforming market system was proposed as a result of the research. Keywords: vital activity of society, the Donetsk region, the socio-cultural environm...

Costs of the Human Capital and Development of the Social Potential in Accounting System for Central and Eastern Europe

“…Social capital is comprised of the following components: education, health, social infrastructure, social hierarchy, demographic trends, criminal and military risks (Kvilinskyi, 2017).…”

“…The creation of favorable conditions for the development of society is an extremely difficult problem. It repeatedly worsens in the territories with unstable political, economic and social situation (Kvilinskyi, 2017), meaning a number of countries in Central and Eastern Europe, including Ukraine. Spending on human capital and the development of social potential should occupy an important place in the state budget of countries and the budget of separate economic entities.…”

Cooperation and integration processes and models in context of development of branches of economy and territories

“…In this case, it is necessary to regulate the process of occurrence of stable elements in the structure of complex management systems, which will be related to the needs of consumers and changes in their behavior. This, in turn, gives grounds to consider issues related to management of cooperation and integration processes of developing economic entities, branches of the economy and territories (Dinar & Wolf, 1997;Dźwigoł & Dźwigoł-Barosz, 2018;Kvilinskyi et al, 2017;Kwilinski, 2018;Lakhno et al, 2018;Lyulyov & Pajak et al, 2016;Shvindina, 2017;Sheldon, 2017;Vasylieva et al, 2018;Vernay et al, 2018;Wink et al, 2017).…”
