Abstract

The processes of modern integration of Ukraine with Europe are closely connected with changes not only in the system of national legislation in terms of its adaptation to the principles and norms of international and European law, but also with a radical revision of the basics of legal support in public life. One of the most important spheres of public life is the social sphere, which is closely related to issues of social security and social protection of citizens. From this point of view, Ukraine’s approach to European living standards directly implies the improvement of the system of state management of social protection of citizens. The aim of the article is to analyze the impact of European integration processes on the social protection system in Ukraine, study the current state of social security and protection in Ukraine, identify the main problems of social policy in the country, suggest ways to solve our problems. The purpose and objectives of this article, together with its object and subject matter, predetermined the research methodology used, which includes documentary review and critical analysis. The significance of the obtained results is the theoretical basis they form for further analysis of the socio-political situation in Ukraine and forecasting the prospects of modern social development.
