MENTAL, SOCIAL AND ECONOMIC WELL-BEING

Abstract

The issue of well-being is a constantly important issue for the existence of humanity in terms of its components. The ideology of the dominance of the "mother" model increasingly appears as a marked kind of animation, becoming at the same time a universally recognized priority and a cultural and "status" compulsion related to the quality of life. The purpose of the article is to determine the interdisciplinary principles of well-being in terms of its mental, social and economic components. The subject of research is the conceptual foundations of mental, social and economic well-being. Research methods: analysis and synthesis, comparison, grouping and analogies. Presenting main material. The article reveals the authors' reflections on well-being. Arguments and reasons are presented to confirm the principle of equal opportunities in access to social and economic benefits of individuals, which in turn predict their mental well-being. Issues related to well-being in the above dimensions will be considered in the context of the need for changes that are introduced in social life through, among other things, man's opus magnum, which is the phenomenon of globalization. The issue of well-being and, as a result, happiness is presented as a subject of interdisciplinary analysis carried out by representatives of many scientific disciplines, including philosophy, psychology, sociology, economics and ethics. Different interpretations of approaches to well-being and well-being are presented. The essence of the concept of well-being in the system of related concepts, such as wealth, standard of living, quality of life, economic well-being and social well-being, is revealed. Attention is focused on socio-economic well-being, which is revealed in the context of the implementation of the above-mentioned principle of equal opportunities in access to benefits related to the spheres of mental, social and economic components. Originality and practical significance of the research. The practical value of the research lies in the fact that the obtained results deepen in the conditions of globalization and consist, among other things, in supporting poor countries and equalizing differences in the income levels of citizens of different countries. Access to and use of even basic economic goods and services is critical to the integration of members of modern society. Research conclusions. In the conditions of deepening globalization, the problem of economic and social well-being takes on a new expression. On the one hand, it will be economic alienation, and on the other - alienation in the social sphere. It should be remembered that economic and social exclusion (caused, among other things, by low income or even no access to the labor market, inability to meet certain needs, services, etc.) is closely related to mental well-being. Therefore, the modern world must face the problem of economic and social inequality and organize social life in such a way that it promotes the development of all people as much as possible, i.e. "pro publico bono", which in turn will contribute to the equalization of their mental well-being
