Abstract
Social policy is a policy aimed at solving various social problems against social risks such as poverty, industrial accidents, illness, old age, unemployment in order to improve the quality of life of people. In the modern era, there are social policies such as assistance projects in society. In the modern sense, social policy began with the intervention of state power to resolve the contradictions of the capitalist system. Although social policy was previously limited to labor issues, it has gradually become a policy tool for the implementation of a welfare state and a welfare society for all citizens.
This article reflects the important provisions of the assessment and analysis of the future of social welfare policies. Social policy should be organized taking into account the various needs of people throughout their lives, supporting the development of their capabilities, and taking into account demographic changes. In general, social policy should respond to the needs and potential of citizens, as well as equalize their opportunities. In the modern era, the social welfare system has a formal and normative framework, but at the same time there are a number of problems related to the relevant field. Social policy is conceptualized as a set of guidelines, directions, criteria, and instructions that ensure that social welfare reaches all sections of society in an equitable manner to protect and enhance it.
