The study attempts to examine the impact of social sector development on inclusive growth in India. Ever since Independence, India’s encounter with gnawing poverty and stark deprivation, particularly of the weaker and the marginalised sections of society, cajoled India’s planners to moot the development policies with the sole objective of exacerbating growth with equity. That is why since the beginning of the planning era, the stress had been laid on strengthening and expanding the social sectors with the premise that it would boost the inclusive growth agenda, manifesting in equal access to employment and economic opportunities; equal participation in decision-making and reduction in poverty and inequality. In conformity with the objective of our study, we intend to gauge the effect and contribution of different components of social sector development in India, on inclusiveness of growth using time series data for the period of 1985–1986 to 2015–2016. It was found that the expenditure related to ‘social security and welfare’ contributes significantly towards inclusive growth in India while the expenditure incurred on ‘welfare of marginalised class’ and ‘rural development’ exudes negative association with inclusiveness of growth.

Alliance management is often associated purely with enterprise and innovation in the private sector. However, it is precisely in 'social' sectors such as housing, care, welfare and education that a growing number of new alliances arebeing formed, often cutting across conventional sectors. Increasingly, they are arising between social and commercial institutions. Alliance management, including that of public-private alliances, is a logical response to the changing dominant logic in these markets and can lead to a controlled transition from a social sector to a social market.

RESUMOTrata-se de um relato, que parte dos resultados obtidos na dissertação de mestrado profissional em ensino na saúde da Universidade Federal Fluminense que traz como problema o pouco envolvimento de profissionais de saúde e de alunos em formação no controle do tabagismo. Objetiva apresentar e trazer para reflexões a questão do tabagismo e as ações de promoção e prevenção a ele relacionadas, a partir de duas estratégias elaboradas com vistas a favorecer a formação e as práticas dos profissionais de saúde na Estratégia Saúde da família. Utiliza como referencial teórico metodológico a análise institucional, colocando em debates coletivos o problema do tabagismo em encontros de intervenção nos moldes da socioclínica institucional. Como resultados dos debates foram evidenciados que crianças e adolescentes eram o grupo mais vulnerável a iniciação ao tabaco e que esta temática era pouco abordada na formação. Foram elaboradas duas estratégias sendo uma delas um formulário para identificar os fumantes, quantos desejavam parar de fumar, e se tinham crianças e ou adolescentes nas famílias, e outra um curso de capacitação sobre tabagismo desenvolvido por estudantes de farmácia e aplicado aos agentes comunitários de saúde. Considera que o processo de intervenção contribuiu na elaboração dos produtos a partir das estratégias pensadas nos debates, e favoreceu mudanças na maneira dos participantes entenderem o tabagismo, enfatizando a corresponsabilidade dos serviços e do ensino na promoção e prevenção ao tabagismo.    Palavras-chave: Promoção da saúde; Prevenção do hábito de fumar; Tabagismo; Pessoal de saúde; Estudantes. ABSTRACTIt is a report, that part of results achieved in the dissertation of professional masters in health education of Universidade Federal Fluminense, which brings as a problem the little involvement of health professionals and students in training in smoking control.

Introduction. Financial aspect is one of the most problematic issues in education system. Insufficient funding directly affects other dimensions of this system. In many countries, including Ukraine, scientists, researchers, analysts and all those interested in education issues, are trying to find an answer on the questions: who has to finance education and what proportion of funding should come from different sources. Purpose. The purpose of this paper is to analyze the main trends in funding of education to form a basis for the government financial rules. Methods. In the research process, a set of research methods and approaches was used: systemic, structural-functional, analysis and synthesis, comparisons and others. Results. The analysis of statistical data for 2004-2016 on the education sector funding demonstrates that in Ukraine there is a gradual increases in education expenditures, while its share in GDP is at the level of average indicator for the OECD countries, although this share tends to decrease reduce this share. At the same time, the share indicator will be another if taking into consideration the real GDP and the size of the shadow economy. In addition, these costs are used inefficiently. The main source of education funding is public funds, among which the largest share of funds comes from local budgets. The significant reduction of the households occurs share, in the structure of private sector education funding. The largest share of spending goes to the first-level higher education and primary education institutions. Preschool education is funded by the state and local budgets and partly by the private sector; funding for secondary and post-secondary education is mainly carried out at the expense of local budgets; higher and postgraduate education are financed by the government and individuals (households). Conclusions. Priority actions in the education field should be aimed at ensuring a growth of expenditures on education and a significant increase in their efficiency. The issue of optimizing levels and sources of funding for all levels of education is acute. Establishing financial rules in education creates an environment that will not restrict competition in the educational services market. This establishes quantitative benchmarks for the government activities, control of these activities and basis for the formation of certain expectations.

This chapter critically examines the role of social sector policies in enhancing human freedoms against the backdrop of the globalization process and the SDGs that are anchored in the human development ethos. We argue that the agenda of human development policy-making is of identifying and promoting ‘public goods’ that enhance basic capabilities and thereby human well-being. Drawing from the empirical experience of countries, four stylized facts that contribute to the effectiveness of social sector policies are presented. The stylized facts emphasize the role of initial conditions, redistributive measures, and reaping the synergies of integrated policies. Select innovative measures across countries that address human development challenges are discussed with a view to identifying unique policy initiatives. The chapter highlights the need to distinguish between the pathways of policy-making that enhance comprehensive outcomes vis-a-vis those that lead only to culmination outcomes.

AbstractAdjustment in Latin America has largely been analysed in terms of macroeconomic policy. However, for reforms to be sustainable in the long term, there needs to be accompanying change in the social sectors. Such reform is difficult and costly. It is necessary, however, not simply to sustain the economic reforms, but also for an effective long-term strategy of poverty alleviation and for the consolidation of democracy. There are lessons to be learnt from successful and unsuccessful social sector reform.
