The state, by virtue of its nature, is capable of controlling and regulating all spheres of society. The main instrument of this regulation is the ability to redistribute resources between different spheres of life. Russia, in the era of new global challenges in the conditions of fierce information competition, needs to pay special attention to the cultural sphere of society. It is the preservation and transmission of cultural values, norms and experience to new generations that are able to ensure the unity of multinational people in turbulent circumstances. However, due to numerous factors, the cultural sector, receives insufficient state support and funding. In modern realities, in addition to economic problems, the sphere of culture is experiencing new difficulties associated with the digitalization of society. The article presents the results of the research, in the course of which the all-Russian expert survey was conducted. The experts gave their opinions on the most urgent problems in the sphere of culture, which were subsequently analysed. The most acute issue, according to the majority of experts, is the underfunding of the cultural sphere, which leads to significant consequences: unequal participation of citizens in cultural life, use of cultural institutions, limited access to cultural values; personnel stagnation in this sphere. In addition, the sphere of culture is subject to the processes of politicization and commercialization, which slows down its development and reduces the overall level, which has a negative impact on society. Experts state that cultural reforms aimed at modernization and the revision of cultural policy are necessary in the sphere of culture. Such changes are possible only with the adoption of a new law “on culture”, which would renew public administration in this sphere and ensure the progressive and systematic growth of the cultural level of the population.

Population Quality

The article is devoted to the analysis of the cultural component in the formation of the population quality in Russia. In this paper, on the basis of the data of sociological polls, an attempt is made to assess the modern cultural policy of Russia from the point of view of the formation of the human potential quality. Sociological polls show that the population of Russia as a whole is interested in getting to know cultural values, but only half of the respondents have a real opportunity to consume cultural goods. Among the main reasons explaining the impossibility of contact with the arts and culture, the respondents indicate the lack of money, time, and information. The article focuses on the negative consequences of cultural policy implementation in the context of institutional transformations in the field of culture associated with unification, optimization, commercialization, and culture measurement in the framework of the budgetary sector reform. Within the framework of performance-based budgeting, cultural institutions are financed not by the fact of their existence on the basis of the cost estimate, but according to the volume and quality of services provided according to a state (municipal) assignment. Instead of realizing a cultural mission, cultural institutions now fulfill the tasks facing the founder. As a result of unification, optimization, commercialization, and cultural measurement, the performance of cultural institutions is assessed in accordance with a business approach, meaning on the basis of quantitatively measurable indicators (number of events, number of consumers, amount of earned income). As a result, the specificity of cultural activities and the high social significance of cultural institutions are not taken into account. The paper pays attention to the problems of financial support of the cultural sphere at the expense of budgetary funds and also shows significant regional disparities in the financing of the cultural sphere in the regions of Russia. In addition, the article examines the consumption of cultural goods through the prism of household consumption expenditures

The article considers the issues of changing accents and cultural transformation in Ukraine, Great Britain and other European countries. In recent years, Ukraine has seen an active revival in the cultural sphere. From publishing to music, from film production to theater, from fashion to curatorial exhibitions – the Ukrainian cultural environment has become bold, diverse and large-scale. Euromaidan has given impetus to a powerful wave of cultural activism: from discussion platforms to spontaneous exhibitions, from urban regeneration projects to volunteer groups seeking to protect dilapidated national heritage sites. The impetus for it was the dynamism of the Ukrainian creative community. And further development became possible thanks to the support of new state cultural institutions. These institutes emerged after Euromaidan, such as the Ukrainian Cultural Foundation, the Ukrainian Book Institute, and the Ukrainian Institute. Institutions with a long history, such as the State Agency of Ukraine for Cinema, have strengthened their positions. The creation of these new institutions marked the departure from the post-Soviet system of cultural management. And the transition to a consistent and comprehensive cultural policy. The main thing is that the creation of a new system of culture in Ukraine has helped to bridge the gap between the state and cultural activists and the creative sector. One of the most important problems of the cultural sector in Ukraine for the last 25 years is funding. This problem is also relevant for the United Kingdom. But when it comes to finding resources for artists and cultural institutions, British policy has a respectable tradition and a number of successful answers. Support for the arts by both the state and business seems to be a matter of course for the British. At the same time, the idea of the self-worth of art is also supported by the idea of its social significance, as well as the perception of art as a primary source of creativity, innovative development, creative industry. The relationship between the European Union and the society of Ukraine is already yielding some results in the context of ensuring the democratic and European development of the state. For the successful implementation of European integration in Ukraine, it is necessary to apply such mechanisms that will ensure coordinated management of social processes of the state in the direction of European integration. The main mechanism is cultural policy, which should be aimed at regulating the regulatory framework. And the application of regulations in practice. This will allow culture to take a leading position on the path to national modernization. Legislation should be a mechanism for achieving goals, and the main thing should remain that the person should be at the center of cultural policy of the state. Given the experience of the United Kingdom, the formation of Ukraine's cultural policy should be based on the idea of the all-encompassing impact of culture on modern society. Accordingly, such a policy, being aimed at the cultural sector, effectively affects all spheres of public life. Consistent support for culture at the financial and fiscal, legislative and executive, national and local levels should, above all, be based on an awareness of the value of culture. Culture enriches people's lives, changes their worldview and inspires creativity. In the social dimension, its impact has the most significant impact on education, health and cohesion.

‘Open city’ is a new term that was coined after the cultural policies of European cities had been established. This phrase reflects the need for citizens to participate in the establishment of the city’s cultural policy, which is part of a new sustainable system that involves a digital approach to cultural goods. Most European cities base their cultural policy on four key principles: cultural identity, cultural diversity – interculturality, creativity, and citizens’ participation in cultural life. Cultural development strategy must ensure that these principles are observed by and intertwined with all public policies. This approach indicates the development of artistic disciplines in all contemporary directions and should have a direct influence on local governments and those in charge of the cultural sector. Cultural tourism greatly increases residents’ participation in cultural projects.
