Социальная трансформация в России в 1990-е годы: особенности формирования законодательной базы

Abstract

The article reveals the problem of the formation of social policy in Russia in the 1990s, the features of the formation of the legislative framework.. In the 1990s, Russia faced a dual task – to formulate an economic policy based on market principles and, again based on the experience of Western countries, a new social policy. Western states are not unanimous on social issues, but social policies are formed and implemented by all. There are three basic models of it, in which the participation of the state in the implementation of social tasks is outlined in different ways. Russia faces the problem of adapting the state's social obligations to the consequences of market transformations. The Russian scenario turned out to be painful for the economy and social sphere. In Russia in the 1990s, social transformation laid some of the foundations for social policy. But it did not lead to the formation of social policy itself, which is incorrect to interpret as a certain sum of social measures, because any policy, including social policy, is usually understood as a mechanism developed by the state for regulating social relations, aimed at their harmonization. The authors made an attempt to establish socio-economic changes in society, highlighting individual periods that influenced the features of the formation of the legislative framework of the 1990s.
