Research in the field of the international social policy

Abstract

A need to do research work is included in the activities of a number of international organizations and institutions in the field of social policy. The United Nations and their specialized institutions organize and support international technical aid and cooperation, exchange of information, follow up and examination of phenomena of importance for the social situation in the world and publish the research results. In the present article have been analyzed the activities of the UN Research Institute for Social Development which has been engaged in research on social developments in the world for more than forty years.

Niz međunarodnih organizacija i institucija, u sklopu svoje delatnosti u oblasti socijalne politike, imaju potrebu za istraživanjem. Ujedinjene nacije i njene specijalizovane institucije organizuju i podstiču međunarodnu tehničku pomoć i saradnju, razmenu informacija, praćenje i proučavanje pojava od značaja za socijalnu situaciju u svetu i publikuju rezultate istraživanja. U radu se razmatraju aktivnosti Instituta za istraživanje socijalnog razvoja UN, koji se više od četrdeset godina bavi istraživanjem socijalne situacije u svetu.
