Legal Regulation of Social Services Citizens in the Context of New Technological Opportunities

Abstract

Modern society is experiencing a significant impact of digital technologies on all spheres of public life. The rapid development of information technology is transforming approaches to the provision of social services. This necessitates the flexibility of legal regulation and its ability to respond to problematic issues related to the integration of innovations into the practice of social protection. In addition, special attention is paid to the importance of respecting the rights and freedoms of people in need of social services. The rapidly developing process of digitalization is stimulating the emergence of new scientific developments that would reduce the disparity between the development of scientific and technological progress and the pace of development of society. At the same time, the use of the results of the digitalization process is only one of the ways to improve two main indicators — the quality and accessibility of social services for citizens.
