Empirical concept of social policy is conditioned by specific and numerous economic-social, societal, political, geographic, geopolitical, cultural, historical, demo­graphic, ethnological and other factors. This brings differences in the level of realization of social goals and social rights of the Union citi­zens.

Finally, we shall point to basic strategic goals of the development of social policy in the coming period.
