scholarly journals HOUSING SUBSIDY AS IRREVERSIBLE TARGETED STATE SOCIAL ASSISTANCE TO CITIZENS

The urgency of this topic is unmistakable and due to the fact that it is undergoing significant changes to date. Namely, the provision of a housing subsidy today has a new form. The article determines what kind of social assistance it offers, such as state aid for the payment of housing and communal services, discloses and justifies the procedure for receiving citizens of this type of state social assistance provided by the state, which cares for the needy citizens and their family members. Article 46 of the Constitution of Ukraine specifies the right of a person to social protection at the expense of budgetary funds. In accordance with the Law of Ukraine “On Housing and Communal Services”, adopted in 2017 by the Verkhovna Rada of Ukraine, it noted that the benefits and subsidies for the payment of housing and communal services from January 1, 2019 are paid to the consumer in cash and in the manner determined by the Cabinet of Ministers of Ukraine. The important issue, in this case, is that such assistance for the payment of housing and communal services should have targeted use and was directed specifically to pay for such services. The article analyzes the Resolution of the Cabinet of Ministers of Ukraine No. 1176 in which we can see the mechanism of the targeted use of budgetary funds provided by the state to provide subsidies to the population. Therefore, a fair decision is that if the family has conscientiously referred to the use of residential communications and saved energy resources, water, heat energy, gas, by the results of the heating season, it can use at its own discretion and for its own purposes the balance of funds remaining as a result of economical use and savings of housing the subsidy that is on her account. Such a form of savings is interesting primarily for the family itself, which should stimulate an individual, who has a right to receive such a subsidy, reasonable and rational use of residential communications provided by the state. From 2019, subsidies were provided to citizens for the payment of housing and communal services in cash in two models of monetization, which operate simultaneously: 1) transfer of funds at the central level to a bank account in state bank “Oschadbank” with a special regime of use, followed by their referral for payment of housing and communal services; 2) the provision of housing subsidies in cash directly to the recipient. It reveals an understanding of monetization the concept. Monetization is a process of transition from the transfer of subsidies in the cashless form to the accounts of providers of housing and communal services to the provision of subsidies to citizens in cash. The purpose of such monetization is to create a transparent mechanism for providing housing subsidies and to encourage citizens to make economical, reasonable consumption. It is determined that today two models of monetization are introduced: cashless money form and cash form. Upon receipt of any information related to the appointment of a housing subsidy, the recipients of the subsidy should apply to the social protection bodies of citizens.

The actualization of social protection of the population consists in the fact that the concept of “social protection” is associated with the concept of “social care” of the state, when individual assistance to a person, groups of people organized by professionally trained people and expressed by the concept of “social work” will have the support of confidence as its ultimate goal man in his strength, his capabilities. That is why in recent years, most specialists of social protection of the population refuse from such a broad, but non-specific concept as "state regulation of the social sphere", and use the term "social support of the population by the state" more and more. The social policy of any state is the most important part of its domestic policy. In the context of Kazakhstan's transition to sustainable development, the problem of improving the social security system of the population becomes especially acute and relevant. The right to social security of citizens is exercised in practice using a specific organized financial mechanism, which includes a set of interrelated organizational, economic, legislative and other measures.

The existing legislation determines the education as "an integral and focused process of teaching and upbringing, which represents a socially important value and shall be implemented so as to meet the interests of the individual, the family, the society and the state". However, even in this part, the meaning of the notion ‘socially significant benefit is not specified and allows for a wide range of interpretation [2]. Yet the more inconcrete is the answer to the question – "who and how should determine the interests of the individual, the family and even the state?" The national doctrine of education in the Russian Federation, which determined the goals of teaching and upbringing, the ways to attain them by means of the state policy regulating the field of education, the target achievements of the development of the educational system for the period up to 2025, approved by the Decree of the Government of the Russian Federation of October 4, 2000 #751, was abrogated by the Decree of the Government of the Russian Federation of March 29, 2014 #245 [7]. The new doctrine has not been developed so far. The RAE Academician A.B. Khutorsky believes that the absence of the national doctrine of education presents a threat to national security and a violation of the right of citizens to quality education. Accordingly, the teacher has to solve the problem of achieving the harmony of interests of the individual, the family, the society and the government on their own, which, however, judging by the officially published results, is the task that exceeds the abilities of the participants of the educational process.  The particular concern about the results of the patriotic upbringing served as a basis for the legislative initiative of the RF President V. V. Putin, who introduced the project of an amendment to the Law of RF "About Education of the Russian Federation" to the State Duma in 2020, regarding the quality of patriotic upbringing [3]. Patriotism, considered by the President of RF V. V. Putin as the only possible idea to unite the nation is "THE FEELING OF LOVE OF THE MOTHERLAND" and the readiness for every sacrifice and heroic deed for the sake of the interests of your Motherland. However, the practicing educators experience shortfalls in efficient methodologies of patriotic upbringing, which should let them bring up citizens, loving their Motherland more than themselves. The article is dedicated to solution to this problem based on the Value-sense paradigm of upbringing educational dynasty of the Kurbatovs [15].

The relevance of determining the theoretical and methodological determinants of the Robert von Moll’s concept of the social state is due to the need to determine the patterns of evolution of ideas about the state and law, as well as the need to assess the ability to use the potential of the Robert von Moll’s theoretical and legal heritage, his predecessors and contemporaries to identify the optimal model of the social state. Modern Russia attempts to build such state. The proclamation and consolidation of Russia as a social state governed by the rule of law at the constitutional level requires attention both to the experiments carried out in social and legal development, and to the practices of social reform, and also to those ideas that have not yet been embodied. The ideas of European scholars regarding the evolution of the state-legal organization of society in the early modern period, based on which Robert von Mohl (1799–1875) developed original concepts of a social state and a state governed by the rule of law are discussed in the article. An analysis of the state of European political and legal thought and identification of the factors that have a significant impact on the development of Robert von Mohl’s doctrine of a social state governed by the rule of law are the purposes of the scientific article. The methodological basis of the study was the dialectical-materialistic, general scientific (historical, systemic) and special (historical-legal, comparativelegal) methods of legal research. The method of reconstruction and interpretation of legal ideas had great importance. As a result of the study, it was concluded that in the first half of the 19th century in European political and legal thought various approaches was formed to consider the problems of social protection and how to resolve them. The development trend of European political science became the transition from ideas and principles formed in the conditions of police states and enlightened absolutism to the ideas of a state governed by the rule of law (constitutional) that protects the rights and freedoms of a citizen. At the same time, it was a question of the rights and freedoms of only a part of the population: the proletariat growing in number and significance was not always evaluated as an independent social stratum. The axiological principles of state justification have also changed. Rights and utility principle became dominant principles. In the first half of the 19th century the social issue as an independent scientific problem of the European political and legal thought was not posed and not systematically developed. Questions about the social essence of the state, the specifics of the implementation of the state social function, the features of public administration in the new stage of socio-economic development of society predetermined the emergence of the idea of a social state. This idea was comprehensively characterized in the Robert von Mohl’s works. He went down in the history of political and legal thought as founder of the concepts of social and governed by the rule of law state.

Despite the positive developments in the sphere of ensuring the special needs of disabled children, a comprehensive socio-hygienic assessment of the conditions and lifestyles, as well as of their families, has not been carried out in the recent years. The purpose of the study is to identify, through a sociological survey, the problems that a disabled child encounters in his life, in order to further improve the provision of medical and social assistance to him. Materials and methods of research: 506 legal representatives of minors (aged 0–17 years) with the status of a disabled child were interviewed. Study design: single-center, non-randomized, uncontrolled. Results: the study of the living conditions of a disabled child in the family, the assessment by the parents of the state of his health, the problems arising during the registration of disability, in the provision of medical and rehabilitation assistance, and issues of medical and social support, made it possible to determine the position of this part of the child population in modern legal and medical and social conditions. The main problems were the large number of documents required for the registration of a disability, the long wait for the day of the examination, the remoteness of the location of the medical and social examination bureau, the shortage of specialist doctors, the problem with subsidized drugs, the lack of taking into account the individual needs of the child when carrying out rehabilitation programs, the need to contact different organizations and departments, lack of medical and social assistance, violation of rights in the provision of medical services to a disabled child. Conclusion: The acquired information is important for the further improvement of the provision of medical and social assistance to handicapped children and children with disabilities. The main task today is to develop mechanisms for fulfilling the declared rights and freedoms of persons with disabilities and the obligations undertaken by the state in relation to them. The principle of individualization of the provision of various benefits, depending on the condition of a disabled child, his needs, material security, remains relevant.

This article argues that Israel substituted the Palestinian refugees' internationally recognized right of return with a family reunification program during its maneuvering over admission at the United Nations following the creation of the state in May 1948. Israel was granted UN membership in 1949 on the understanding that it would have to comply with legal international requirements to ensure the return of a substantial number of the 750,000 Palestinians dispossessed in the process of establishing the Zionist state, as well as citizenship there as a successor state. However, once the coveted UN membership had been obtained, and armistice agreements signed with neighboring countries, Israel parlayed this commitment into the much vaguer family reunification program, which it proceeded to apply with Kafkaesque absurdity over the next fifty years. As a result, Palestinians made refugees first in 1948, and later in 1967, continue to be deprived of their legally recognized right to return to their homes and their homeland, and the family reunification program remains the unfulfilled promise of the early years of Israeli statehood.

Chapter 3 sets out the key theories with which the book engages: food insecurity and the human right to food. Following on from a conceptualisation and definition of food insecurity, the right to food is introduced. Emphasis is placed on normative element of ‘adequacy and sustainability of food availability and access’ and on the state’s obligation to ‘respect, protect and fulfil the right to food’. Theories of ‘othering’ and ‘agency’ are employed to assess the social acceptability of emergency food systems as a means of acquiring food, and the power of providers to make sufficient food available through these systems and of potential recipients to access it. Theories of ‘care’ and ‘social protection’ are employed to explore the ways in which charitable providers are in practice taking responsibility for the duty to respect, protect and fulfil the right to food and how shifts in welfare policy are affecting need for this provision.

The paper starts with a brief discussion of recent developments of economic restructuring of the State Owned Enterprises in China and their related reforms in social insurance and social assistance. It then reports the findings of an attitude survey of residents in Shanghai in 1996 towards the social and economic consequences of economic reform. It reveals that, despite the fact that most people feel better off with the reforms, there is still a need for the state to play a role in social protection.
