SOCIAL AND CULTURAL SERVICES AS AN OBJECT OF LEGAL REGULATION

Abstract

The article studies theoretically undeveloped issues of legal regulation in the sphere of social and cultural services. This service sector is not the subject of a comprehensive scientific study from a legal point of view. For today there is no unified understanding the concept of "socio-cultural services". Their broad interpretation predominates. The article attempts to introduce certainty into some aspects of this problem. The solution of this theoretical problem has applied significance for the purposes of legal regulation of service activities. For the productive performance of regulatory functions, stakeholders must understand the specifics of the regulatory object and the means for solving problems. It is necessary to take into account the active impact of management tools on the content, form, and structure of the regulatory object when studying management activities. In this case, regulating tools mean legal norms structured in legal institutions and branches of law. The article considers social and cultural services as an object of legal regulation from two sides: the concept of "socio-cultural services" and specific of means for implementing the regulation.
