The study is aimed at identifying the range of problems caused by the implementation of the state social function, as well as detecting ways to solve them. In modern society, the state's implementation of a social function is gaining importance in connection with increasing social tension and the strengthening of the role of the state in solving social problems against this background. Most of them are caused by economic difficulties, since the state can realize social rights and guarantees mainly due to material support, and, for the most part, the society is not ready for the functions that are assigned to it by the modern social state: active position, participation in charity, assistance in the implementation of social functions by authorities. In this regard, it is necessary to determine the priority of the interests of society and the state, identify the main problems that arise in the implementation of the idea of a social state and determine ways to solve them. In this article, the authors consider forms of implementing the social function of the state at the state and non-state levels. Particular attention is paid to the municipal level of organization of the social function as the closest to the population, as well as the activities of trade union organizations. A significant contribution to the formation and development of the idea of the state's implementation of a social function, in particular, was made by the scientist G. Becker. Other authors mentioned in the article also point to the most common problems in the process of implementing the social function of the state at all levels.

The state sector playing the leading role is the perception that has been consistently specified in documents of the Communist Party, since the seventh National Congress. The affirmation of the state sector’s leading role is to clarify the nature and characteristics of the socialist-oriented market economy. The leading role of the state sector means the state sector pioneers and leads in the market economy which is reflected by the holding of crucial positions and activities in the economy. After nearly 30 years of reform, the connotations of the leading role of the state sector and the key position of state-owned enterprises have been gradually defined; the state sector and state-owned enterprises have been differentiated. The state sector plays a leading role in a multi-sector economy in which the state-owned enterprises keep a “crucial position” and are a material condition to orient socialism. The state sector, however, is yet to clearly show this role. The state sector has a tremendous influence with some components of it directly affecting the whole economy, which are resources, infrastructure, state budget etc. Because of the above - mentioned reasons, the state sector is the foundation to the social and economic development in the socialist-oriented market economy of Vietnam.

The article is devoted to the analysis of the problems of a social security modern discourse formation in the framework of a philosophical discussion of the transformation processes of the formation vector of the state security policy. The task of the article, according to the author, is to present the problem of security in conditions when it ceases to be understood, as a concept associated with the idea of preserving the integrity of a state or nation, and functions as a phenomenon with the broadest possible social parameters. Using the methodology of phenomenological, hermeneutic and comparative analysis, the new areas of security research, common difference of which is social and personal orientation are analyzed. The author pays attention to the features of the methodology of works reflecting the point of view of the modern state, works related to the development of a systematic approach to security, works based on an axiological approach and concludes that, despite the expansion of security interpretations, all these approaches retain a common ideological foundation. presupposing the need to preserve the leading role of the state in the field of social security, including the security of the individual and society and the state. All these approaches are based on the policy of responding to emerging threats to the Russian state and do not reflect the needs of a comprehensive strategic goal-setting covering the sphere of socio-economic development of the social system. This circumstance, according to the author, leads to the formation of a security strategy that exists only in the name of protecting the state and does not imply feedback between the state and the social institutions that the state is going to protect, which leads to the ineffectiveness of modern protection measures and the need to find new ways to justify the need for this protection, a new definition of its content and essence

This chapter proposes the practice of nation branding as a political technology, as an example of neoliberalism in which the definition of national identity, previously assessed primarily by the social sciences and humanities, becomes the domain of business managers and advertising executives, thanks to technologies associated with social media. It explains how the redefinition of social goods, the role of the state, and the role of experts entail the replacement of a more socially driven understanding of identity with an act of commercial prestidigitation by way of nation branding; the pertinent state entities are replaced by advertising and image consultancy firms; and, lastly, scholars of various disciplines are replaced by advertising and PR executives. In short, following neoliberalism, identity is reinterpreted as brand. Identity no longer results from the never-ending and instantaneous negotiation between a multiplicity of parties, representative of myriad aspects relevant to the configuration of individuals and communities, but is rendered instead as the quantifiable, concrete result of a variety of transactions. Through this reformulation, a new relationship is suggested between the idea of nation as imagined community and the reality of the state as a material expression of the concept of nation.

Rental housing has been regarded as the new ‘frontier for financialisation’ since the 2007 financial crisis. But research examining financialisation of de-commodified rental housing is limited and is primarily focused on stock acquisitions by financial investors and the enabling role of either national or local governments. This critically overlooks the emergence of the financialised production of social rented housing, the interplay between levels of government (particularly with the regional level), and the leading role of the state in these processes. By combining a political sociology approach to policy instruments with a housing system studies perspective, the paper investigates how Italy, through the interplay between national, regional (Lombardy) and local (Milan) governments, led the financialisation of its social rented housing production. Through analyses of six decades of financial-legislative changes in the housing system regarding production/provision, finance and land supply, it identifies a three-stage journey towards financialisation: (1) the rise and fall of publicly-owned rental social housing (1950s to 1990s); (2) the regionalisation and marketisation of the sector up to the late 2000s; and (3) the upward transfer from the first local-scale experiment with the real estate mutual investment fund in Milan to the creation of a national-scale System of Funds for the production of social rented housing. The study shows that the re-commodification of housing and land initiated in the 1980s were intertwined and a conditio-sine-qua-non for financialisation; that the state played a crafting—rather than solely enabling—role in this process; and that trans-scalar legislative–financial innovations transformed social rented housing into a liquid asset class.
