Housing conditions and the possibility to improve them are one of the main indicators of the standard of living of the country’s population. State methods of regulation in this sphere must contribute to minimize the risks of citizens and ensure their safe investment in the purchase of housing under construction. For these purposes the mechanism of project financing — the system of financing the construction of apartment buildings through escrow accounts was developed and introduced.The subject of the article is an analysis of the introduction of escrow accounts in relation to Russian regions. The statistics presented by the financial development institution in the housing sector Dom.rf allows to detect a positive dynamics of citizens’ trust in development companies, which finally is reflected in a significant improvement of the quality of life of Russians. Thus, with the growth of citizens’ trust in contractors — developers of apartment buildings, their interest in buying better quality housing grows. Besides, the mechanisms of project financing weed out unfair builders, leaving only reliable developers on the market, which raises the qualitative characteristics of new projects and gives extra stability to the market.

The problem of improving qualitative characteristics of population is relevant for all regions. Its solution assumes breaking the subjects of the Russian Federation into groups, similar in the values of quality of population, and in the degree of effectiveness of the factors affecting them. The main factor considered in the article is quality of life in terms of all its dimensions. The previous correlation analysis of the indicators of quality of life and quality of population made it possible to substantiate the choice of system of indicators for grouping Russian regions with the purpose of elaborating a strategy for improvement of the qualitative characteristics of population. There is revealed a strong impact of the economic indicators of quality of life on the quality of population: average monetary per capita income, poverty rate and unemployment rate. Along with the obvious connection between these indicators, their ratio in different Russian regions is various. Among all indicators of the quality of population, 4 indicators were selected for analysis: natural increase of population, life expectancy, education level, number of alcoholics and drug addicts. Cluster analysis on the set of seven above mentioned indicators resulted in development of regions' typology consisting of seven groups. Each cluster received informative interpretation. The obtained typology was compared with the typology of regions by indicators of quality of population and the typology by indicators of quality of life. Their common features and differences were identified. Inclusion in consideration of territorial factor, which was presented in the article by the share of urban population in regions, did not confirm the hypothesis of its significant impact on the quality of population. On the basis of all the obtained results and their substantive analysis the authors propose a typology of regions which can be used for development of strategies for improvement of the qualitative characteristics of population with the account of the specifics of each regional cluster.

The authors review the literature on the subject of how women's work along the food chain may affect their nutritional status and other aspects of their lives. They point out the discrimination against women in food and work allocation: women often work harder and have greater energy expenditures than men but get less food. Bennett makes this point in her article too, and McGuire touches on it as well.

Annotation. The problem of suicide and euthanasia has been particularly updated with the spread of the COVID-19 pandemic, which caused a strong explosion of suicide, because medicine was not ready for it, and the man was too weak in front of its pressure. The article considers the issue of euthanasia and suicide based on philosophical messages from the position of a doctor, which today goes beyond medicine and medical ethics and becomes one of the important aspects of society. Medicine has achieved success in the continuation of human life, but it is unable to ensure the quality of life of those who are forced to continue it. In these circumstances, the admission of suicide or euthanasia pursues the refusal of the subject to achieve an adequate quality of life; an end to suffering for those who find their lives unacceptable. The reasoning that banned suicide: no one should harm or destroy the basic virtues of human nature; deliberate suicide is an attempt to harm a person or destroy human life; no one should kill himself. The criterion may be that suicide should not take place when it is committed at the request of the subject when he devalues his own life. According to supporters of euthanasia, in the conditions of the progress of modern science, many come to the erroneous opinion that medicine can have total control over human life and death. But people have the right to determine the end of their lives while using the achievements of medicine, as well as the right to demand an extension of life with the help of the same medicine. They believe that in the era of a civilized state, the right to die with medical help should be as natural as the right to receive medical care. At the same time, the patient cannot demand death as a solution to the problem, even if all means of relieving him from suffering have been exhausted. In defense of his claims, he turns to the principle of beneficence. The task of medicine is to alleviate the suffering of the patient. But if physician-assisted suicide and active euthanasia become part of health care, theoretical and practical medicine will be deprived of advances in palliative and supportive therapies. Lack of adequate palliative care is a medical, ethical, psychological, and social problem that needs to be addressed before resorting to such radical methods as legalizing euthanasia.

A very important role in the diagnosing process is played by the conversation with a patient, which should always have a diagnostic-therapeutic character. The subject of interest of this paper are the relations between medical personnel and patients. The chapter aimed to explain the application of main ethical theories in conversation with patients as a diagnostic-therapeutic instrument. As an example, a case study illustrates basic ethical principles of such a conversation. It as an instrument of diagnosis and therapy retained its value despite introducing numerous methods of diagnosis based on the findings of modern physics or electronics. In our view, the conversation should always aim at the benefit of the patient and the results of treatment as well as sustaining patient's subjectivity and hope for achieving a higher quality of life.

Changes in the scope of health policy in the United States are creating opportunities and obligations for lawmakers and the lawyers who advise them. These changes are the result of a new politics of policy for the health of populations. The new politics is connecting areas of policy that, because they have had separate histories, are governed by distinct, usually uncoordinated laws and regulations.The subject of the new politics of health policy is what the Iowa Senate President, speaking in a plenary at the 2003 conference on Public Health Law in the 21st Century, called the “quality of life, what the people think is important.” An increasing number of leaders in general govemment–people who run for office and their staff–have practical reasons to make policy that acknowledges the expanding scope of what their constituents define as health policy.

This article deals with the process of suburbanization in Russia. Its special attention is paid to two major Russian cities: Moscow and St. Petersburg. The article compares the processes occurring in the above cities with the similar ones in the American cities. This comparison provides a means of appropriate ways for improving the quality of life in Russian megalopolises. This article suggests that Soviet heritage could not afford Russian regions to copy American experience to the full extent. However, American “edge cities” are considered to be the best form of suburbanization in terms of increasing the quality of life.
