abstract: 'The article considers theoretical aspects of a scientific research ``The
|
|
|
|
Mechanisms for Overcoming Mental Barriers of Inclusion of Socially
|
|
|
|
Vulnerable Categories of the Population for the Purpose of Intensifying
|
|
|
|
Modernization in the Regional Community{''''} (RSF grant No. 16-18-00078).
|
|
|
|
The authors analyze the essence of the category of ``socially vulnerable
|
|
|
|
groups{''''} from the legal, economic and sociological perspectives. The
|
|
|
|
paper shows that the economic approach that uses the criterion ``the
|
|
|
|
level of income and accumulated assets{''''} when defining vulnerable
|
|
|
|
population groups prevails in public administration practice. The legal
|
|
|
|
field of the category based on the economic approach is defined by the
|
|
|
|
concept of ``the poor and socially unprotected categories of
|
|
|
|
citizens{''''}. With the help of the analysis of theoretical and
|
|
|
|
methodological aspects of this issue, the authors show that these
|
|
|
|
criteria are a necessary but not sufficient condition for classifying
|
|
|
|
the population as being socially vulnerable. Foreign literature
|
|
|
|
associates the phenomenon of vulnerability with the concept of risks,
|
|
|
|
with the possibility of households responding to them and with the
|
|
|
|
likelihood of losing the well-being (poverty theory; research areas
|
|
|
|
related to the means of subsistence, etc.). The asset-based approaches
|
|
|
|
relate vulnerability to the poverty that arises due to lack of access to
|
|
|
|
tangible and intangible assets. Sociological theories presented by the
|
|
|
|
concept of social exclusion pay much attention to the breakdown of
|
|
|
|
social ties as a source of vulnerability. The essence of social
|
|
|
|
exclusion consists in the inability of people to participate in
|
|
|
|
important aspects of social life (in politics, labor markets, education
|
|
|
|
and healthcare, cultural life, etc.) though they have all the rights to
|
|
|
|
do so. The difference between the concepts of exclusion and poverty is
|
|
|
|
manifested in the displacement of emphasis from income inequality to
|
|
|
|
limited access to rights. Social exclusion is characterized by the
|
|
|
|
situation and state of exception that is linked to social status and
|
|
|
|
self-perception of human rights and expressed through the senses of
|
|
|
|
inferiority, anger, fear, despair, depression, shame. The status of
|
|
|
|
social exclusion has many criteria: poverty, limited opportunities for
|
|
|
|
employment and education, lack of access to social and community
|
|
|
|
networks and activities, inability to plan one''s own life. The
|
|
|
|
explanatory concept of social exclusion is based on the construction of
|
|
|
|
the attitude toward socially vulnerable layers as the devalued social
|
|
|
|
status. The barrier of social inclusion consists in the formation of a
|
|
|
|
negative image of a representative of this category of the population in
|
|
|
|
the eyes of more secure population groups; and the reason for this
|
|
|
|
phenomenon lies in individual characteristics of an individual: lack of
|
|
|
|
purpose, apathy, laziness, low motivation to labor and training, and bad
|
|
|
|
habits. The prevailing social stereotype contributes to the
|
|
|
|
stratification of entire families, including children, who are in
|
|
|
|
advance deprived of the most important economic, political and cultural
|
|
|
|
resources of society, and have no opportunities for the upward mobility.
|
|
|
|
If no measures are taken to overcome social exclusion, it can lead to
|
|
|
|
the fact that part of the population will fall out of social development
|
|
|
|
and slip into a state of stagnation and complete social dependence. The
|
|
|
|
concept of social inclusion shifts the priorities of state social policy
|
|
|
|
from the allocation of social transfers to actively changing the mindset
|
|
|
|
in society.'
