0.705 to 0.747 - that is, by 6% (on average - by 0.024% per year). In the world, for the
studied periods, HDI has grown by an average of 2,345 - that is three times more than
in Ukraine. Progress over the years was achieved at the expense of the poorest
countries, but the countries of the first group - with the highest HDI - increased it by
1,574. That is almost twice as much as Ukraine.
In the period from 2015 to 2016, the value of the index of human development in
Ukraine grew by an average of 0.78, which was achieved at the expense of accumulated
experience during the period of sustainable socio-economic development in the field
of education, environmental protection, improvement of living standards and poverty
reduction in the country. , ensuring productive employment, finding ways to prevent
social exclusion, etc. But, on the other hand, the slight change in the HDI in Ukraine
for the analyzed period quickly influenced the beginning of the socio-economic
collapse, which greatly worsened the position of Ukraine in the global environment.
For the diagnosis of the welfare of the population at the national level, it is
proposed to use the following indicators: the growth rate of the gross domestic product
(GNP); the growth rate of labor productivity; the share of foreign investment in the
total volume of investments in the country; national income per capita; R & D as a
percentage of GNP; share in the country's exports of raw materials, labor-intensive and
capital-intensive industries; share in world export and import of goods; the level of
incomes in the families of workers and employees, the real incomes of the population
and their purchasing power, etc. However, the dynamics and the overall value of these
indicators are influenced by factors such as: labor productivity, employment of the
population, which requires the accumulation of human and physical capital,
accompanied by an increase in supply of goods, simplification of operations in the
financial market, the development of credit, insurance relations, the provision of high-
quality public goods by the state, inflation, movement of goods in the national market,
size and level of the national market, investment, education of the population, state
regulation, labor resources, etc.
The natural consequences of the transformation of society. In the context of
globalization, the direction of transformation determines the common development of
mankind, so the transformation in certain societies can be directed from the outside and
adjusted to the requirements of the population of the country through individual
"modernizations", such as reforms in tax, budget, pension, banking systems,
educational, medical, informational, transport, judicial and other spheres of social and
economic activity and solving legal issues of development of the country. In general,
the process of transformation of society can take such stages [21, p. 168–169]:
The first stage is the process of understanding society of the need for
transformation on the basis of an analysis of the current situation, scale of threats and
new challenges for the development of crisis and conflict phenomena in society. If such
