In this regard, it becomes obvious that there is a need to develop a system of measures for early identification of families in crisis.
The subject of the article is the institutionalization of European social policy from the perspective of neo-functionalism – a theory which from the 1950s aspires to a comprehensive explanation of the process of European integration. The institutionalization process of the European Union's sectoral policy is a process of acquiring the power by EU to shape a given policy. Its purpose is to create a set of legal norms and institutions that transfer partial or full competence to undertake regulatory actions to the EU bodies from the EU level (definition of policy objectives, establishment of instruments, means and methods of its implementation, implementation of specific tasks, policy evaluation, etc.).The article discusses the legal foundations of European social policy written in the treaty establishing the European Economic Community (1957). The increase in EC / EU regulatory competence in the area of social affairs that has been taking place since that time is interpreted by using a functional, political and cultivated spillover mechanism and the thesis on the European socialization of the elites, which are the axis of the neo-functional integration theory. Institutional and legal analysis is used to verify the adopted research assumptions. ; Целью статьи является анализ формирования европейской социальной политики на основе неофункциональной парадигмы европейской интеграции. Основная гипотеза статьи заключается в том, что развитие социальной интеграции в Европейском союзе (ЕС) обусловлено, прежде всего, необходимостью построения единого рынка, поэтому в этом процессе видно явное преимущество регулирующих инструментов (гармонизация европейского трудового законодательства) над перераспределительным (предельное развитие общеевропейских социальных благ). Создание перераспределительных инструментов на наднациональном уровне в соответствии с неофункциональной теорией ограничено логикой spillover механизма. Основной метод исследования, используемый для проверки принятых допущений исследования, - это институциональный и правовой анализ.Первая часть статьи будет интерпретировать европейскую интеграцию с точки зрения неофункционализма. Далее будут обсуждаться правовые основы европейской социальной политики, изложенные в Договоре о создании Европейского экономического сообщества. Повышение регулятивной компетенции ЕЭС/ЕС в этой области будет интерпретироваться с использованием функционального, политического и культурного spillover механизма, и тезиса о европейской социализации элит, которые являются осью неофункциональной теории интеграции. ; Метою статті є аналіз формування європейської соціальної політики на основі неофункціональної парадигми європейської інтеграції. Основна гіпотеза статті полягає в тому, що розвиток соціальної інтеграції в ЄС обумовлено, перш за все, необхідністю побудови єдиного ринку, тому в цьому процесі явно переважають регулюючі інструменти (гармонізація європейського трудового законодавства) над перерозподільними (граничний розвиток загальноєвропейських соціальних благ). Створення перерозподільних інструментів на наднаціональному рівні відповідно до неофункціональної теорії обмежена логікою механізму spillover. Інституційно-правовий аналіз був використаний для перевірки прийнятих припущень щодо досліджень.В статті інтерпретувано європейську інтеграцію з точки зору неофункционалізму. Правові основи європейської соціальної політики, викладені в Договорі про створення Європейського економічного співтовариства. Підвищення регулятивної компетенції ЄЕС/ЄС в цій галузі була інтерпретована через використання функціонального, політичного і культурного механізму spillover, і тези про європейську соціалізації еліт, які є віссю неофункціональної теорії інтеграції.
Раздел "Международные отношения" ; Социальная политика ЕС является важной составляющей европейского интеграционного процесса. Среди всех государств можно выделить Великобританию и Францию, которые оказывают наибольшее влияние на ее формирование. Первая из них на протяжении всего своего членства в ЕС занимала последовательную сдерживающую позицию в отношении этого направления деятельности ЕС, что в значительной степени препятствовало его развитию. Франция, напротив, всегда выступала инициатором и наиболее активным участником социальной сферы европейской интеграции, стремясь придать всей деятельности организации социальное измерение. = The European Union's social policy is an important component of the European integration process. Great Britain and France can be singled out from all the states as the countries which have the greatest influence on the formation of this policy. The former took a consistently restricting position in this respect throughout its membership in the EU which hindered its development to a great extent. In contrast, France has always been a most active initiator and participant in the social sphere of European integration, trying to add a social dimension to all activities of the organisation.

In Slovenia, there is an urgent problem of limiting the harmful effects of economic activities that deteriorate the living conditions of people, animals and fl ora. The state is taking measures to encourage residents to stay in their home towns and take care of their arrangement and development, the preservation of natural resources and a comfortable environment for people. Numerous public organizations of civil society play an important role in this. This article outlines the features of the modern environmental policy of Slovenia, carried out within the framework of the general line of the European Union, aimed at the phasing out of carbon fuels and the transition to renewable energy sources. The article analyzes Slovenian official documents, setting out the country's environmental strategy, progress in the implementation of plans for energy and climate measures until 2030, the current state of the energy sector and its compliance with the planned tasks. The author's assessment of the efficiency of the environmental policy carried out in Slovenia and its possible results is presented. It is stated that although the indicators of improving the environmental situation are gradually increasing, the emission of harmful gases is decreasing, and the efficiency of the use of energy and raw materials is improving, Slovenia still lags behind the European average in most of these indicators. Meanwhile, it has a relatively high share of renewable energy sources in its total production. This is achieved through budget subsidies for the energy produced from renewable energy sources so that its price does not exceed the market level. Significant monetary resources are spent to apply a wide range of incentive measures. Therefore, the government is forced to seek opportunities to further increase the funding for environmental activities, in particular through European Union funds, including assistance to fight the coronavirus pandemic.

This study interprets the modern understanding of ethnic and national identity. It was noted that there is an important connection between ethnic and national identity, created on the basis of nation-building processes. Since the 1990s, nationalism that has been at the top of the international agenda, new nations and state building processes, problems of ethnic identity, which have become an important item on the agenda in relations between states and international organizations, a new quest for democracy that develops through the recognition of differences, growing cultural conflicts in many regions from Asia to the American continent, and social movements based on identity have raised identity politics to an important position in international relations. In this context, international relations theorists, who have increased their ties to political theory in a way that has accelerated especially in the 1990s, are rebuilding the discipline's relationship with identity politics.

The article reveals the relevance of studying information security, as well as examines external and internal threats to ensuring it. The difficulties that occur in this case are analyzed. A positive model of the development of society is associated with this type of security, so it is no coincidence that the most important task is to create a fullfledged theory of information security. Without this, it is impossible to speak about the effective elimination of a number of negative consequences of the process of society informatization. In this context, an extremely important task is to ensure the protection of children from information psychological and destructive threats, including overcoming the Internet and other types of information dependence. Information security theory is an integral part of social security psychology. For its complete design, there is still a lot to be done both in theoretical and applied terms. First of all, the creation of a national information platform is meant. Currently, there is an urgent need to develop competence in the field of information security not only among professionals, but also among various groups of the population.
