Abstract: The peculiarities of state’s key social priorities formation amid a combination of multiple cascading economic and political crises are shown. The impact of global crisis factors on the prospects of national social development in the context of achieving the Sustainable Development Goals by 2030 is revealed. Taking into account the experience of such global crises as the financial and economic crisis of 2008-2009, the COVID-19 pandemic-driven "coronacrisis", and the crisis associated with the Russia-Ukraine wa… Show more

Assessment of the Relevance and Impact of Global Challenges for National Policy
The article is devoted to the presentation of certain results of the scientific project «Evaluation of national social policy in the context of global challenges», which was carried out by a team of specialists of the Ptoukha Institute for Demography and Social Studies of the NAS of Ukraine in 2022—2024. These results were obtained during carrying out tasks related to the identification of global challenges for Ukraine, assessment of their relevance and impact on national policy. The main basis of this work is the theoretical and applied findings of the most famous studies of such categories as global risks, threats and challenges. The study of global risks and challenges is one of the most relevant scientific tasks for today, as humanity is increasingly aware of the urgent need to confront possible threats to its existence both at the level of international cooperation and at the level of national policy. The article provides a brief overview of current research with an emphasis on the Global Risk Perception Survey (GRPS) methodology, according to which the World Economic Forum annually conducts assessments and publishes their results in its reports. By analogy with the international GRPS methodology, as part of the project implementation, for the first time in Ukraine, a series of surveys of national experts was conducted to assess the national context of global challenges perception. The first round was held on the eve of the full-scale invasion of Ukraine’s territory by Russian troops, in the period from February 16 to February 23, 2022, the second round — in the summer of 2022, and the third — in the fall of 2023. The purpose of this study is to determine the composition, degree of relevance and measure of impact of global challenges (at the national level — on the population of the country, at the local level — on the population of the community), as well as to study the temporal component of changes in their perception. For the formation of main postulates of the research, the work uses general scientific methods of generalization, analysis, comparisons, as well as a graphic method — for visualization of obtained results. As a tool for the two-dimensional assessment of the relevance and impact of global challenges, the authors built a matrix that allowed to group the challenges according to the growth rate of the evaluated parameters. The largest group includes eight challenges that have a significant impact on national policy and will be relevant in the next three years: «Employment crisis», «Deterioration of the population’s mental health», «Collapse of social security systems», «Decreasing accessibility and quality of education», «Damaging the ecosystems», «Increasing social inequality», «Deterioration of water resources quality», «Insufficient ensuring of human rights». The experts assessed only one challenge as catastrophic — the «High level of armed violence», by which they obviously meant human losses due to the death and injury of the military personnel and civilian population, loss of health and work capacity. It is these challenges that will require priority attention in the development of national policy strategies. The ability of our country to face global challenges and ensure social and economic resilience depends on the adequacy of the decisions that will be made.

Social resilience of the national economy through the prism of the experience of the European Union and Ukraine
The authors deal with the concept of resilience (stress resistance) at the macro level, and reveal its meaning in the societal, economic and social dimensions. It is shown that in the context of the strengthening of global risks and hybrid threats, and the accelerated transformation of the world into a global hybrid "peace-war" system, the priority task of government policy is to ensure the resilience of the national economic system as the ability to maintain functionality and recover after the shock effect of various factors. Based on the logical-historical approach, the authors reveal the stages in the formation of the concept of multidimensional resilience as a strategic basis of modern governance of the European Union. This concept became the basis for the reconfiguration of the EU strategic foresight system in 2020, integrated into the process of forming a Pan-European policy aimed at ensuring an effective transition to a "green", digital and fairer Europe. Within the framework of the European Strategy and Policy Analysis System (ESPAS), the updated EU strategic foresight system provides for the use of "Resiliency Information Panels" as a new monitoring tool, developed with due regard of the specificity in the development of the participating states. The evaluations of the socio-economic resilience of the European Union for the year 2023, which were obtained with the help of the specified monitoring tool, were analyzed and presented by the European Commission. The authors reveal the role of the concept of multidimensional resilience in the formation and implementation of national recovery and stability plans of the EU states at the current stage. Characterized the legislative innovations of the European Union regarding the resilience of the economies and societies of the participating countries in the conditions of overcoming the shock consequences of the COVID-19 pandemic, the Russian-Ukrainian war and climate change. The paper substantiates the need to ensure the social resilience of the economic development of Ukraine as a reliable pillar of its support during the war with the Russian Federation, as well as during the post-war reconstruction and reconstruction. The authors prove that the social resilience of Ukraine’s national economy under the conditions of martial law and post-war reconstruction can be presented in the form of a model that structurally contains three sectors, namely: 1) employment and labor potential; 2) solvent consumer demand; and 3) social protection and provision. Each of these sectors is complexly dependent on many factors that characterize the generation of human and social capital, the quality of people's lives, the development of the spheres of employment, social security and social protection of the population, the state of the ecosystem and the institutional environment, etc. Taking into account the EU’s modern approaches, a list of basic and additional indicators is developed for monitoring and analyzing the social resilience of Ukraine’s national economy. The authors provide various practical recommendations on state policy measures aimed at ensuring the social resilience of this country’s economy of Ukraine in the war and post-war period.
Non-economic determinants of social and labor development – 21st
The article contains scientific argumentation of social and labor development of the first half of the 21ST century, which is increasingly acquiring features of instability and human(non)centricity. The quintessence of the presented theoretical and applied discourse is the substantiation of the need to overcome economic centrism, increase the role and importance of uneconomic factors of sustainable social progress in ensuring balanced social and labor development in the new socio-economic reality; The authors' construct of moral, ethical, spiritual, cultural dimension of competitive advantages in the context of dialectical unity of the economic and non-economic. The article is aimed at promoting a fundamental rethinking of the philosophy of sustainable social and labor development, which is centered on the priority of attitudes, values, beliefs of a moral, spiritual, ethical, solidarity, socially responsible, socio-cultural nature, which are conventionally called uneconomic and should become the leading pillars of the new digital world of economy and the world of the people themselves. The methodological research platform is an organic combination of systemic and interdisciplinary approaches using general scientific and special research methods. The worldview failures in understanding the non-economic aspects of human life in digital age are highlighted; the emphasis is placed on the distorted view of the role, place, and mission of the non-economic in ensuring sustainable development. The necessity of using a new conceptology, a new development strategy based on the principles of human-centrism is substantiated; the potential of solidarity and consolidation in network forms of interaction between subjects of social relations is proven. The range of phenomena and processes that act as "clots" on the way to sustainable social and labor development based on trust, inclusion, cohesion, solidarity, consolidation, responsibility, culture in its broadest sense is outlined, and, on the contrary, the factors that increase the role of the non-economic in ensuring sustainable social and labor development and overcoming the deepest crisis of our time are identified. The authors argue that the "new science", the new economic theory of social progress, facilitated by published foundations, must offer a different philosophy, different principles, and drivers of sustainable social and labor development, which are almost the exact opposite of the dominant postulates of growth, which is often not accompanied by development.
