Comparison of the Level and Quality of Life of the Population of Russia and China

Abstract

In the context of global social tension, the issues of the standard of living of the population of developed and developing countries are becoming relevant. The purpose of the study is to test the theoretical and methodological prerequisites and hypotheses in assessing the level and quality of life of the population on the example of the countries of China and Russia, which will identify the most complex elements in this area. Research methods. The following were used in the work: coefficients and growth rates, grouping, ranking according to the studied parameters of the standard of living. The method of grouping, correlation, regression, imputation, statistical evaluation, description, comparison, analysis, synthesis, normalization and integral evaluation method. The study was based on the application of the basic techniques of Safiullin M.R. and Kocheryagina N.V. Results. As part of the study, a team of authors obtained an assessment of the standard of living of the population in China and Russia, characterized on the basis of qualitative and quantitative indicators using published statistical data. Regional features in the field of quality of life were established and typical differences in the field of quality of life in both countries were identified. Novelty. The study proposes to evaluate the standard of living of citizens by the formula of normalized quality-quantity coefficients, taking into account the identification of the role of nutritional factors, economic well-being, mortality and life support of the population in the field of the quality of life of the population on the example of Russia and China according to related statistical data. Conclusion. The study shows that the standard of living of the population can be grouped by a normalized coefficient using the example of the countries of Russia and China. Qualitative analysis made it possible to determine the features and give a qualitative and quantitative assessment of life indicators in Russia and China, which is relevant in the context of the current negative impact of economic processes on the social sphere.
