The Monitoring of social and economic change enables to estimate the consequences of social policy, in particular on the basis of the dynamics of such generalised estimates as people's attitude towards life, observance of social rights, material conditions of families, current mood, evaluation of the present times (namely how difficult they are), and readiness to protest. On the basis of the listed indicators, two significant points are noted: first, the obvious prevalence of negative estimates by practically all indicators (except readiness to protest); second, either an increase of negative estimates or their stagnation observed across all indicators. At present in society, the necessity of a deep social reform aimed at achievement of positive changes has become ripe, first of all in the area of social and labour relations and a system of social guarantees. In the contemporary world, labour behaviour increasingly becomes conditioned by attitudes to a remuneration adequate to workers' expectations and capable of satisfying their various needs and requirements (material, professional, status-related, and personal ones). Concerning the level of understanding of importance of motivation process for labour efficiency, Russia is noticeably behind the world's leading countries. The problem of earningsrate has become still more urgent than in the Soviet period. According to notions expressed by employed respondents, their average earnings today are approximately three-fold lower than they deserve. Under Russia's conditions, for most people work increasingly becomes the source of means for survival, whereas in the developed industrial countries the significance of socio-psychological "stimuli" is increasing (recognition and approval of results of work, need for respect from human environment, for recognition and approval of achievements, need for self-expression and realisation of personal potential, satisfaction -with results of -work, possibilities of creative and business career, professional promotion, success, need for communication, support, participation, responsibility, etc.). At present, the question must be creation of a new system of social guarantees, really ensuring social protection to every citizen in a society based on market relations. Despite deep changes in society, the public prefers a pattern of the development of social guarantees when the government assumes responsibility for satisfaction of the most significant social needs of people. The question is, in the first place, predominantly free school education and health services. It seems that the logic of mass consciousness in this case fully conforms to economic efficiency and social utility. ; The Monitoring of social and economic change enables to estimate the consequences of social policy, in particular on the basis of the dynamics of such generalised estimates as people's attitude towards life, observance of social rights, material conditions of families, current mood, evaluation of the present times (namely how difficult they are), and readiness to protest.
