In the framework of the strategic tasks for the country to increase the level of scientific and technological development and enhance innovation, it is of scientific interest to study these processes using the example of healthcare as the most dynamically developing social sphere. Aim of the study: to consider the possibilities of interaction between medical and economic science in the process of introducing innovations in regional health care. Materials and methods. The paper uses systemic and integrative approaches, methods of comparative and statistical analysis, and modern IT solutions. Results. The article proposes a classification of innovations in medicine and confirms the effectiveness of the integrated use of organizational, informational, medical, non-medical innovations in the industry, which helps reduce morbidity, disability, and mortality of the population at the macro- and meso-levels. Conclusions. The authors’ approach to the study of innovations in the regional healthcare system substantiates the feasibility of integrating medical and economic science from the perspective of not only medical, but also economic effects at the social level. The authors’ approach has been tested on the example of the oncological service of the Sverdlovsk region, proving the achievement of high medical, social, economic effects at the regional level as a result of the integrative interaction of medical and economic science.

The analysis of indicators that reflect changes in the social, economic and political spheres in recent years has shown their significant deterioration and the possibility of growing social tensions in the regions of Ukraine. The purpose of the study is to classify the regions of Ukraine according to the level of formation of social tensions and to determine anticipative measures aimed at preventing the creation of crisis situations. The article proposes a methodical approach to the classification of regions using the methods of cluster, discriminant analysis and analysis of variance according to the level of social tension, which includes two main stages: substantiation of the system of socio-economic indicators characterizing the level of social tension; selection and substantiation of models of classification of the regions. Within the first stage of the methodical approach the system of indicators which reflect changes in social, economic and political spheres of Ukraine in modern transformational conditions was constructed. Within the framework of the second stage of the methodical approach on the basis of cluster analysis the classification of regions according to the level of formation of social tension was carried out. The classes of regions were selected: with a low level of formation of social tension; with an intensified level of formation of social tension; with a high level of formation of social tension. The results of the study showed that the number of regions in the class with a high level of social tension is constantly growing and, unfortunately, the number of regions with high socio-economic development is decreasing. The classification of regions made it possible to determine the list of preventive measures that can reduce the losses of the state associated with the containment of possible crises in the social sphere. However, the article also states that such a list of activities should take into account the specifics of the region that is part of each class

The development of methods for evaluation of industrial development by investigation of its ecological and health, as well as its social and economic, effects was the aim of UNEP/UNIDO Project EP/INT/73-002. Following six weeks' study of the cotton textile industry in Thailand, recommendations were made regarding criteria, team composition, and methods of utilizing existing information and conducting interviews. Interviews with village people and farmers were found to be a feasible method for qualitative assessment of environmental effects, and for providing information on which losses could be estimated. In all cases the costs of prevention or mitigation of damage were small in comparison with estimated costs of the damage caused.The paper suggest that developing countries have the opportunity to industrialize without the trauma of extensive damage to health or environment, and that such development is not intrinsically more costly than other types in financial terms. It does, however, demand better understanding of the social, economic, and environmental, characters of a locality before planning begins. In many countries, including Thailand, existing university and other resources, assisted by interviews with the communities concerned, can provide the information required for this understanding, and therefore the delay need not be great.

The duality of contemporary tourism is reflected in the stable distribution o f, on the one hand, positive and, on the other, negative and unfavourable social and economic functions. The paper investigates the causes and the manifestations of a specific and more and more significant (regarding its immanent dangers) field of tourism which speaks of the so-called “other”, dark, negative, unfavourable, conflictual, even pathological in certain elements side of this contemporary and prestigious-important social-economic phenomenon. The investigation is a segment of the author’s scientific project which has been accepted by the Croatian Ministry of Science and Technology entitled “Social and Economic Contradictions of Croatian Tourism” and whichwill investigate the social and sociocultural negative phenomena in tourism both in Croatia and elsewhere. The aim and purpose of die project is to diagnose the problems, to systematise them, to establish the ways and measures to relativise, alleviate or uproot a part or the totality of these phenomena all with the purpose to affirm and advance its positive social and economic functions and activities in order to achieve more permanent and lucrative social and economic effects. Various examples of visible and hidden consequences from world tourism culled from the relevant sources warn and make suggestions to Croatian toursim how to “actualize” this question for the benefit of tourism in Croatia.

The world experience of most developed countries shows that the basis of their economic growth is the expansion of the spheres of activity of traditional sectors of the economy through the introduction of innovative technologies. In this regard, an understanding of the trends, characteristics and prospects of scientific and technological development will allow us to determine competitive advantages, identify bottlenecks, and set priorities in the development of long-term strategic documents for the development of not only the economy, but also the social sphere at the level of both the Russian Federation as a whole and individual territories. This, in turn, requires an assessment of the current state, dynamics and main factors of the formation of scientific and innovative potential. Since innovation potential is a multidimensional concept it is necessary, when assessing it and for comparing it between different territories, to bring it to a single integral indicator.

The functions of the state in historical development are investigated. It is proved that the main functions fall into the changes that take place in the state; the derivative functions fall under the more powerful influence of the established ethnocultural strata of societ’ys life, national, territorial peculiarities, traditions, etc, and therefore the state of the modern type, which appears in the results of the development of a specific state-organized society, can, in explicit or hidden forms, be preserved andsometimes to develop some traditional functions of the state. In the context of the theory of state and law, the functions of the state are analyzed and shown that they are not a stable and unalterable phenomenon, fundamental and frozen in its development, and depending on the specific historical conditions, the elements of these general functions may acquire independent significance and signs of independence. The state-legal phenomena and processes in conceptual positions of the theory of state and law with the use of methods of classification of state functions for their further ordering and comparison are investigated. It is shown that their classification is important for understanding the functions of the state, which allows not only to reveal common features but also to formulate a scientifically grounded opinion about the variety of functions of the state. It is proved that due to the classification of state functions, it is possible to work out practical recommendations regarding the main directions of state activity not generalized and declaratively, but differentiated with respect to each separate function. It is highlighted that the classification criteria of state functions allow enumeration of different functions of the state to a particular class and group. The most common groups of state functions are classified: 1) their division into external functions and internal functions; 2) according to the criterion of importance for the state, the main and derivative (additional, or non-principal) functions of the state are distinguished; 3) in the time duration of the existence of the functions of the state distinguish between mandatory (permanent, continuous) and temporary (non-permanent, transitory); 4) depending on the social interests of which the functions of the state are performed, they are divided into general social groups and groups (for the protection of the interests of a certain stratum of society); 5) sectoral division of functions of the state, that is, the division of the social sphere (economic, social, law enforcement, environmental, etc.).

Recent statistics of old age mental disorder have drawn an alarming picture of rising rates of admission to mental hospitals in many parts of the world. One of the predictions made on the basis of such statistics has been that old age psychoses might, in due course, relegate schizophrenia to second place in number of admissions. There are, however, dangers in drawing conclusions about a complicated problem, such as mental disorder in old age, on statistical grounds alone. Before the figures can be properly evaluated more detailed information about the social, economic and, above all, clinical aspects of the problem will be required than is available at present.

A classification of regions of Ukraine by the level of formation of social tensions together with determination of preventive measures aimed at preventing the creation of crisis situations are carried out. It is proved that the socio-economic situation typical for Ukraine has deteriorated significantly. This is evidenced by the decline of a large number of international indicators that characterize the stability of the country’s development. The suggested in the article methodological approach to the classification of regions by the level of formation of social tensions includes two main stages: substantiation of the system of socio-economic indicators that characterize the level of social tension; selection and substantiation of models of classification of regions. The carried out analysis of the values of socio-economic indicators of each cluster allowed to allocate the following classes of regions by the level of formation of social tension: 1st class – increased level of formation of social tensions; 2nd class – low level of formation of social tensions; 3rd class – high level of formation of social tensions. Of particular importance for the research is the 3rd class, i.e., the class with a high level of formation of social tensions, which leads to a crisis. The regions of this class should have serious government support in the social sphere. The results of the research showed that the number of regions classified with high level of social tensions is constantly growing and, unfortunately, the number of regions where the social sphere is more developed is decreasing. It should be noted that this situation is extremely dangerous, because it can lead not only to social, but also economic and political crises. The carried out analysis of the status of region of each of the received classes provides the possibility to prevent aggravation of crises in the social sphere and determine the list of preventive measures that can lead to a decrease in losses both in terms of individual classes and in the State as a whole.
