The Impact

The aim of the article is to analyze risks in the social sphere and their impact on the development of society in Ukraine. Increasing the impact of risks in the sphere of demography, employment, remuneration, etc. in the context of sustainable development has been determined. The conducted research shows that the risks related to the labor sphere and the health of the population are the most aggressive and dangerous for the safety (as shown by the coronavirus pandemic) because protracted problems in the political, social and economic spheres are accompanied by job losses, economic decline, low wages for more than half of the working population. In view of the ambiguity and uneven economic development of the administrative territorial units of Ukraine it has been determined that education and knowledge can become a factor that can lead to the activation of innovative changes and reduce the negative impact of social threats. For this reason, the most important requirement for the sustainable development of Ukraine is the formulation of a social policy, based on an effective system of methods aimed at preventing risks and reducing probability of their occurrence.

The article describes for the selected organizations their activities and the nature of the social entrepreneurship concept. At the same time, five paradoxes that arose in Ukraine in the field of social entrepreneurship were mentioned as following: the main source of income for working in the social sphere entrepreneurs are grants that are not fundamentally in contact with international practice; the carelessness of entrepreneurs who are not concerned about the future of a company created with borrowed funds; absolute lack of support from the state; lack of interest in state supporting; an excess of laws in the country that contradict each other.According to the results of the research, the authors present obstacles to the concept of social entrepreneurship implementation in Ukraine and the steps needed to stimulate development. Taking into account current trends in the world development, the authors outline the global goals of UN sustainable development, which covers social entrepreneurship as a type of economic activity.

Abstract The purpose of this study is to explore the way higher education institutions adapt to environmental pressures. These pressures can be represented either by various demands or by specific policies. Dropout policy is examined on a Czech case study in order to demonstrate that at the end of the day, higher education institutions respond mainly to the most pressing challenges of an economic nature in the most rational way. As a result, their traditional mission (teaching, research, the third mission), and mainly the social function of the higher education system, may be at stake. At the same time, this study illustrates how difficult it is to introduce any higher education policy without thorough evaluation of other policies in place and of various factors affecting institutional behaviour.

Introduction. The features of social innovations classification are investigated. It allows them to be identified among the whole set of innovations in the social sphere of public systems. The approach is based on the differentiation between the main features that are characteristic for the given type of innovation. Purpose. The article aims to define the peculiarities of social innovations classification from a viewpoint of sustainable development for social and economic systems of different levels. Results. The main features of social innovations classification in terms of sustainable development have been described. The differentiation of social innovations into "deterministic" and "veritable" considering the basic peculiarities of social and economic systems development has been suggested. It has been specified that deterministic social innovations relating to innovation-oriented social and economic systems arise as the positive externals in the result of introducing technical, technological, economic, environmental and other innovations, thus, “veritable” social innovations are generated exceptionally for public development. The generation of such types of social innovation is characterized by the prospect of economic potential of the social and economic system.

State Functions

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.).
