Description
Summary:The study is devoted to the development of regional charity in the 19th - at the beginning of the 20th century in the city of Mykolaiv, as the basis of social protection of the population. In the research process, methods of theoretical and methodological analysis were applied: study, analysis and generalization of scientific literature, educational and methodical publications on the researched problem, comparison and generalization of data (study of historical aspects of the formation of charity, cause and effect relationships), synthesis (analysis of the influence of charity on the formation of the system of social protection of the population), generalization and specification. It has been established that in the scientific literature, the issues of the origin of charitable activity, the status of charitable activity in different historical eras and systems of social relations, forms of philanthropy and their evolution, and the relationship between the concepts of "charity" and "patronage" remain debatable. The modern definition of philanthropy is based mainly on the empirical materials of charitable organizations, individual activities and the conclusions of scientific studies in the field of social sciences, most of which raise the problems of philanthropy as part of their leading questions. Charity in Mykolaiv has become an integral part of the everyday life of the well-to-do population. In order to help vulnerable sections of the population, the Mykolaiv elite created charitable organizations or societies, which made it possible to change the lives of many residents of Mykolaiv for the better, and contributed to their social protection. At the beginning of the 20th century the system of social protection of the population is being formed. Currently, charitable activities in Ukraine are on the rise: there are a huge number of charitable foundations in the country, and many citizens participate in their activities. The assistance provided by them greatly contributes to the solution of a number of problems that have arisen in the state, and bona fide charitable foundations enjoy a high level of trust.
