The strategic priorities of the management of the processes of humanitarian cooperation of the EEU countries

Abstract

After the collapse of the Soviet Union, important qualitative institutional, structural, and functional changes emerged in the post-Soviet space. Each of the countries of the region was at the crossroads of possible ways of development, conditioned by the interests of various external and internal social groups. These groups sought to meet their own needs at the expense of the new state entities and did not realize at that time the measures of their responsibility for the acquisition of the independence and sovereignty that had suddenly «fallen off» on them. The external social environment and the nature of the relations between states have been changing; the market relations have gradually been regulated, not without external repercussion, the influence of the initially weak but gradually developing civil society has increased. In this situation it is important to trace the evolutionary dynamics of the coherence degree of the social changes of post-Soviet countries and key priorities for their integration.
