Abstract

The article analyzes the problems, tasks and conditions for the implementation of family policy by Western European governments. The main directions of the policy are considered including the provision of jobs and supporting low-income children, as well as women with children. The system of social transfers and the problems of modern state are scrutinized, such as supporting families with government budgetary financing within the framework of the fulfillment of social obligations. The article examines the assessment of the effectiveness of solving social problems using the example of expert polls. It can be stated that governments in Western Europe envisage the future of family policy as coupled with an increase in government spending on supporting low-income families, families with children, single women with children. The study also highlights the concentration of government efforts on supporting the system of primary and vocational education.
