Legal mechanism of protection from social risks: a value-based approach

Abstract

Protecting people from social risks is an important task for any state and society. Such protection is complex; it combines organizational measures, financial resources, and law. They form a united system, which we call the social risk management system. This system is based on a legal mechanism. Its social value consists in the fact that different branches of law make it possible to guarantee protection at different stages of the risk dynamics. The right also allows an individual to apply for protection, including to the Constitutional Court of the Russian Federation. Using the example of protection from social risks associated with family responsibilities, the authors show the functioning of the legal mechanism for managing social risks and its importance.
