in rural areas and development of practical recommendations for evaluating and improving quality
of life in rural areas. The subject of this study is a system of socio-economic relations that defines processes
and patterns of sustainable livelihoods in rural areas. Methodological basis is a systematic approach and
method of dialectical cognition, which examine processes of development of rural territories in relationship
and complementarity. The results described in this paper are: the degree of differentiation of rural
population under qualitative levels of well-being was studied; the authors’ system of indicators of regional
socio-economic development on a basis of detailed hierarchical structure was presented; priority areas for
improving standards and quality of life of the rural population were identified. A scope of results was developed
and science-based recommendations and suggestions for sustainable development of rural territories
based on authors’ methodology for evaluating quality life in rural areas may be subject to legislative and
executive authorities in development socio-economic projects and programmes aimed at enhancing rural
employment and income were made. The conclusions are: sustainable development of rural territories involves
not only increase of efficiency of rural economy, but, above all, increasing and improving the quality
of life of the rural population; on a system of complementarities, the evaluation of sustainability of livelihood
strategies should take into account the economic, environmental, social and institutional factors |
