Social Inequality as a Political and Managerial Problem in the Development of Russian Regions. Part I
Abstract
The relevance of studying the declared problem is due to the modern social request. The search for its solution becomes the task of the branch scientific discipline of the sociology of management. This article invites you to familiarize yourself with the interim results of a longitudinal study of the phenomenon of social inequality in the context of studying the domestic management system through the attitude (assessment) of the political and management groups of the regions to the functioning of the established regional management systems, as well as through assessments of the accessibility of the population to basic social institutions (health, education, labor market, housing market). The study was initiated in 2014 at the Center for Sociology and Social Technologies of the IS RAS (hand. A. V. Tikhonov) as part of the Metaproject “Readiness of the domestic management system to solve the problems of modernization and economic development” and today has a monitoring status. As part of the operationalization of concepts, a definition of the political and management group of activity was developed as determining and/or affecting with varying degrees the nature and quality of the political and management activities of the region in the context of the development of territories. The basic social institutions are also defined as the basis for production and socio-reproducible (recreational) infrastructures that ensure social and economic efficiency in general, as well as the manageability of the socio-reproducible process at the regional level. To achieve the objectives of the first stage, a methodology was developed and presented for establishing criteria, as well as dominant signs of political and management groups of regions with different levels of socio-cultural development, namely, on the basis of tools and data from mass surveys (2014, 2017, 2020) of an all-Russian scale conducted as part of the implementation of the Metaproject. The results of the second stage and the general conclusions of the study will be presented in the second part of the article in 2023.
