The article presents a spatial analysis of the prevalence of certain categories of legal problems in Ukraine. The analysis was performed using the database of client appeals of the free legal aid system of Ukraine for 2019 in five categories of problems related to the areas of housing, pension, inheritance, labor, and land law. For each settlement where at least one free legal aid office is located, the share of appeals related to the 5 selected categories from the total number of appeals was calculated. The obtained indicators were used for mapping, correlation analysis and statistical tests. Certain territorial regularities were discovered, as well as correlations of the share of appeals on certain categories of problems with separate social and demographic characteristics of the population at the oblast level were identified. In particular, the share of appeals on housing law at the oblast level is positively correlated with the percentage of households living in apartments, and increases in bigger settlements and their proximity to the oblast center. The share of appeals on land issues is growing from east to west, is highest in rural areas and is positively correlated with the percentage of rural population in the region, as well as the percentage of people employed in agriculture, forestry and fisheries. The share of appeals on hereditary issues is the largest in the western macro-region and small settlements, and also correlates positively with the average household size in the region. Regularities on the prevalence of appeals on labor and pension law could not be found. For all categories of problems, a geographical variation in the prevalence of various legal problems is observed at the oblast level, when the indicators may differ significantly in neighboring districts.

The main purpose of the study is to develop theoretical and practical principles for analyzing the economic efficiency of the program to guarantee employment in rural areas in India. This program of support and active promotion of employment of the rural population is the result of the adoption of the Law on Guarantees of Employment in Rural Areas. The relevance of the choice of this scientific problem is that most scientific papers focus on assessing the effectiveness of the implementation of this legal act at the macro level, while the article analyzes this issue at the level of a particular locality. The object of the study was the village of Sanatpur in Uttar Pradesh, India. The study conducted a survey of participants in the program to guarantee employment in this rural area, which served as a basis for primary data, as well as used official statistics on the implementation of this program in the country. Descriptive statistics methods were used to analyze the effectiveness of the program to guarantee employment in rural areas. The article analyzes the mechanism of implementation of the program to guarantee employment in rural areas, namely the peculiarities of job creation in rural areas, the formation of wage policy, as well as the payment of wages to local residents. The field study identified key difficulties in implementing the above program: insufficient awareness of villagers about the opportunities and benefits of participating in the approved employment support program, as well as low access to basic financial services and lack of almost 70% of the rural population individual bank accounts. The results of the study can be useful for local and national governments in the field of social protection and social security. Keywords: decentralized planning, wage payment, job guarantee.

Introduction. The critical state of both the social sphere and the infrastructure of most rural settlements requires the search for new and effective influences on this situation, as public authorities, as well as many local governments are still not ready to effectively implement social reforms, meet basic living needs. Rural population, refer to the lack of sufficient budget funds. However, human centrism means that attention to the person of the active part of the villagers will affect the living standards of the rural population as a whole, will bring the living conditions in the countryside closer to the urban level. Research purpose revealing the peculiarities of the formation of physical culture of a person who is the only one who forms the demand and development of physical culture and sports in a democratic society, showing new, modern approaches to the development of sports in rural areas with existing limited financial resources. Research methods and materials. A set of methods of theoretical research was used (generalization of literature, materials from the Internet, the content of previous own scientific developments, abstraction, idealization, analysis and synthesis, induction and deduction). Results. Physical activity is the use by a motivated and self-determined person of subjective (assigned, included in the content of life) units of physical culture, reproduced by him to ensure the adequacy of his psychophysical condition to the changing conditions of life and production. Only when the actualized values to be physically developed and healthy, formed individually significant motives, existing concepts, knowledge and abilities, the necessary skills and abilities, only then on the basis of trained body mastered by man, there is a qualitatively new state of development, namely physical personality culture. Physical culture of the individual is a socially determined area of general human culture, which is a systemic, dynamic state, characterized by a certain level of unprofessional, i.e. self-used education, degree of physical perfection, motivational and value orientations and socio-spiritual values acquired through physical education and integrated into physical culture and sports, lifestyle culture, spirituality and mental and physical health. In this regard, the physical culture of the individual, and hence the structure of the strategy of sports development in the united territorial communities should be considered as being in unity and dynamics, and the latter should be the reaction of the social subject to the need to meet the needs of the population. In addition, related interests of physical, and then social, spiritual transformation of the person based on awareness of the value of a specific means of their satisfaction - exercise. Therefore, when considering the structure of PCS, it should be borne in mind that it arises and develops in the social structure of a particular society that has already developed. Conclusions. In the conditions of democratic development inherent in modern Ukraine, the determining condition for intensifying the involvement of rural people in physical culture and sports (PCS) is the formation of physical culture (PCP), as a conscious need to use sports for their improvement and development. It is the person with the formed PCP, uniting with the same persons interested in the development of PCS, forms the micro groups that form the demand for the creation of conditions for sports. The dependence of the governing bodies of the newly created United Territorial Communities (UTC) on the citizens who are voters in the respective territories allows those who have already formed the PCP to act as moderators of the development of physical culture and sports. It is these individuals and the social groups created with their participation with limited financial resources in most of the united territorial communities, who should take responsibility and involve support for prepared projects in the form of crowdsourcing, fundraising, and other modern tools to improve the base of physical culture and sports at the local level. Keywords: personality, physical culture and sports (PCS), physical culture of a person (PCP), physical culture/ sports activity, social group of sports activists, modern approaches to raising funds, crowdsourcing, fundraising, united territorial communities (UTC).

The article analyses the accessibility of medical facilities in rural areas of modern Russia and the specifics of their organization and development. The authors reveal causes why rural residents have much less opportunities to seek quality medical care than urban ones, what leads to a disparity between the inhabitants of the city and the village. The thesis is substantiated that state programmes that should make health services accessible to the rural population to a greater extent do not cope with the task at hand. An attempt is made to highlight the public’s response to the existing disparity in the health services of the villagers compared to urban dwellers. Such a reaction can be considered an outflow of people from rural areas, and an increase in self-medication among rural people as a result of the difficulty in obtaining health services. The decrease in the number of treatment facilities in rural areas leads to a deterioration in the medicine situation in rural areas. That, according to the authors of the article, justifies the need to study the issues associated with the provision of medical care to the rural population.

Typologization of rural areas, taking into account differences in population density and level of socio-economic development, is necessary to identify “growth points” and strategic sustainability benchmarks. The method of integrated assessment of the level of socio-economic development of rural territories is proposed, according to which the grouping of Russian regions is carried out. Applying data on rural population density to the results of calculations allowed us to identify 12 typological groups, in the context of which unified recommendations on sustainable development of territories should be formed.

The purpose of this study is to find the demographic factors associated with the spread of COVID-19 and to suggest a measure for identifying the effectiveness of government policies in controlling COVID-19. The study hypothesizes that the cumulative number of confirmed COVID-19 patients depends on the urban population, rural population, number of persons older than 50, population density, and poverty rate. A log-linear model is used to test the stated hypothesis, with the cumulative number of confirmed COVID-19 patients up to period [Formula: see text] as a dependent variable and demographic factors as an independent variable. The policy effectiveness indicator is calculated by taking the difference of the COVID rank of the [Formula: see text]th state based on the predicted model and the actual COVID rank of the [Formula: see text]th state[Formula: see text]Our study finds that the urban population significantly impacts the spread of COVID-19. On the other hand, demographic factors such as rural population, density, and age structure do not impact the spread of COVID-19 significantly. Thus, people residing in urban areas face a significant threat of COVID-19 as compared to people in rural areas.

Our research aims to elucidate the factors that influence the terminological implantation of a term by proposing a new typology of those factors with a method revealing how their mechanism causes terminological variation in French-language ICT. We accomplish this through an analysis of four Francophone communities: France, Quebec, Belgium, and Switzerland. After establishing a new typology, which encompasses the terminological, socio-terminological, psycho-terminological, and extra-terminological factors, we propose a hypothetical model of their mechanism by introducing three statistical concepts—dependent, independent, and moderator variables—to elucidate these factors’ relationships. We verify our model in two steps. First, for the analysis of terminological and socio- terminological factors, we examine the relations between each factor and terminological implantation of 256 French ICT terms. For this, we begin by coding the terms according to a criterion established for each factor. We then carry out a correlation analysis with Spearman’s rank correlation. Second, we analyse the psycho-terminological and extra-terminological factors with statistical tests on the answers to our questionnaire, which show significant differences between these four linguistic communities. Our analysis confirms a significant difference between the three European countries and Quebec in the mechanism of the terminological implantation factors and we conclude that the psycho-terminological and extra-terminological factors play a decisive role in this difference, which we identify as diatopic.
