CONTEMPORARY PROBLEMS OF SOCIAL WORK
The need for this mechanism is to establish a system boundary between the spheres of social
responsibility and economic freedom. This boundary outlines legislative approval by social
norms.
In the social sphere full privatization is not possible due to the fact that a significant
number of organizations engaged in the provision of public constitutionally guaranteed free or
low-cost goods and services, for this reason, are not commercial organizations and do not have
the investment attractiveness for private investors. This situation compares unfavorably with
the social sector from other industries in which it is advisable to develop PPPs and will need to
intensify investors
using other incentives, rather than income from participation in commercial
projects. Therefore, it is necessary to interest private investors the opportunity to benefit from
the economy of merit [1], for example. Participants of such projects can provide a variety of
benefits both in the objects of the PPP, and in terms of the resources they need. Society will
support this kind of business, because these entrepreneurs are doing something for the good
of society.
In the social sphere of Russia,
from my point of view, the potential of PPPs while not fully
realized, although the development of PPP in the field at the same time allows us to solve two
problems:
• First, to reduce the deficit financing sources of investment in the social sphere,
• Secondly, to improve the quality of social services and the effective management of social
services.
De facto, there are examples of the use of PPPs, but not on the basis of the relevant legislation
(in which there are still significant gaps) and not as a result of purposeful stimulate the
development of these mechanisms on the part of the authorities in charge of the development
of the industry [15]. Not carried out work on the collection and systematization
of information
about ongoing projects, the assessment of market potential, etc.
The absolute leader in the number of projects on the basis of PPP in Russia is the Siberian
Federal District [4] – 106 projects (34%), in second place – Central Federal District – 50 projects
(16%), in third place – Northwestern Federal District – 48 projects ( 15%), and least of all
projects in the North Caucasian Federal District – 9 (3%).
With regard to information within the scheme of construction of the PPP model the only
source of information is scattered publications in periodicals. Using these sources suggests
that the prevalence of schemes to attract private capital to finance investments in the social
sphere are [5]:
a) rent monuments. Leased objects are restored and repaired at the expense of private
companies, which can then use them as offices. Citizens very rarely
given the opportunity to
visit the restored part of the premises, which is a significant disadvantage in this situation.
Architectural monuments are public property and require special legal rules governing these
relationships;
b) repair facilities and / or equipment of organizations with social facilities in exchange
for the right to provide additional value-added services (such as computer classes in libraries,
including those used to provide fee-based services);
c) the provision of the property and land of social institutions to hire private companies
with their obligations under repair, reconstruction and maintenance of the status of all social
facilities.
Even in the social sphere it is important to consider the need to adapt the PPP model to
existing problems and the foundations of society. But the discrepancy of the term public-
private partnership and the same term in the social sphere make us
think about the theoretical
component of this subject. When we talk about the investment attractiveness of the important
dates and amount of dividends [6]. In the model we use PPP investment opportunities of the
state and of private entrepreneurs to solve social problems. The financial attractiveness of

these projects is very indirect. The formation of the opinion of society about this kind of
investors, improving the quality of life and ability to pay or employment – indicators that are
difficult to measure in any precise terms. The only thing we can say that this is a long-term
perspective.
Currently, most of the major PPP projects in Russia is in the preparatory phase and only a
few – is underway. As an example, starts in Nizhny Novgorod, Russia’s largest social PPP project –
the creation of the Center of High Medical Technologies “Nizhny
Novgorod Cancer Research
Center” (TSVMT Nonza). Cancer is one of the leading causes of death from disease in Russia
and in the Nizhny Novgorod region on the country the highest cancer rates and subsequent
mortality. Available in oncological institutions in terms of size and equipment cannot change
the situation. That is, there is a social problem of large scale, and the solution to this problem
will be sponsored by both the state and the private business. Approximate figures for this
property are as follows [14; 17]:

– Development and implementation of new methods of early diagnosis
and combined treatment
– Every year, 150,000 patients attending clinical complex and
18,000 treated patients
– Development of scientific potential and strengthening the global posi-

through the development

– Creation of 7,000 jobs for highly qualified specialists. Tax revenues to
the budgets of all levels after reaching full production capacity will be
1.5 billion rubles annually
The need to combine resources of the state and the private sector in the implementation of
this project due to its scale and innovation [11; 22]. The composition of the Nizhny Novgorod
scientific cancer center should enter:
– A large clinic, equipped with up to date;
– Hadron therapy center that uses the latest advances in science and technology;
