Социальное положение пенсионеров в России и за рубежом

Разделы: Иностранные языки


Трансформационные процессы во всех сферах российского общества изменили образ жизни всего населения, особенно социальной группы людей пожилого возраста.

  • В настоящее время из 145 миллионов 628 тысяч граждан России 38,6 млн. россиян являются получателями государственных пенсий, почти 30 млн. из них – пенсионеры по возрасту.
  • пожилые люди обретают самый низкий статус в социальной иерархии, превращаясь в наиболее дискриминируемую социальную группу.
  • Выход на пенсию приводит к снижению уровня жизни, социальной бедности, неравному доступу к социальным благам и услугам. Основным доходом пожилых людей является пенсия
  • Недоступность качественного медицинского обслуживания, плохие жилищно-бытовые условия, низкосортные продукты питания характерные явления в жизни пожилых людей. Все это формирует у пенсионеров социальный пессимизм, представления о социальной несправедливости общественного устройства.

Таким образом, актуальность исследования обусловлена:

  1. Анализом состояния образа жизни пенсионеров
  2. Необходимостью выявления и изучения социальных проблем людей пожилого возраста в РФ.

4. Обобщение грамматического материала

The conclusion:

You have said about relationships in your families. Where do we find more warm relationships – in Germany or in Russia? As you can see some facts are for the Germany system, some are against. Life and values are different. But first of all elderly people need our love and attention.

So. Stop wasting your time speaking about all the-things-around.

Give you grannies just a little bit of your attention and that’s will make their days longer.

Don’t expect any feedback from them. Elderly don’t make a choice and all of us have to sip from this cup.

Just let you brain work.

Do you want to be honorable or stay in the line of people who forgot their own roots? Make your choice
