The theoretical approaches to the research of the socio-oriented infrastructure of the region

Social stability of society is one of the key indicators of the level of social and economic development of the state. The creation of a modern social-oriented infrastructure contributes to its achievement.Three approaches are applied to the study of infrastructure: functional, material and sectoral. From the point of view of the functional approach, the infrastructure is identified with a set of conditions created in a certain space and stimulating the development of economic activity. The material approach allows considering the infrastructure as a set of structures, buildings, systems and services necessary for the process of reproduction. From the point of view of the branch approach, the infrastructure is a set of branches and types of activity that ensure the reproduction processes and conditions for the life activity of society.At the regional level, it is proposed to understand the infrastructure of the region as an aggregate of material resources that ensure the production and social needs necessary for the realization of industrial and social ties. A socially-oriented infrastructure occupies a special place in the regional infrastructure system. The socially-orintered infrastructure is a set of material and material elements in ensuring social development. Their presence forms the conditions for the life of people and the system for the realization of basic needs. Its elements include health care, education, culture, sports and tourism.Socially-oriented infrastructure of the region acts as an element of a large system of human and society activities associated with the development of the individual, his personality, the development and dissemination of culture, the development of various types of activities that are in greatest demand in the current socio-economic conditions.Â
