Modern Cooperation and Integration Processes in Solving Social Problems

The purpose of this article is to identify cooperative processes in the social sphere and their role in solving social problems. The study proceeded from an activity and resource approach and was carried out using both theoretical and empirical methods. Methods include such as: comparative analysis, structural-functional and system analysis, probe survey, interviewing, expert survey. As a result, a theoretical analysis of the concepts of cooperation is presented; a number of modern social technologies used to solve social problems based on the principles of cooperation are highlighted. These modern social technologies include such as: technologies of social partnership and intersectoral interaction (social orders, grants, volunteer projects, as well as crowdsourcing and crowdfunding, which have been developed thanks to information technologies). We have proposed a basis for systematization of technologies for solving social problems, which are based on the processes of cooperation, based on the subjects of cooperation. Also, the article reveals the prospects for their development in modern conditions.
