Public-Private Partnership as Means of State & Business Cooperation

The state has to guarantee to the population, especially with low income level, a certain minimum set of social services. As a result, social infrastructure has no opportunity to be self-sufficient. The ways to resolve this problem are social partnership agreements, public-private partnership and inter-municipal cooperation. The article deals with the forms of mutually beneficial cooperation applied by the authorities of the constituent subjects of the Russian Federation; the Khanty-Mansi Autonomous District-Yugra is taken as an example. There are three main areas of cooperation: social partnership agreements, public-private partnership and inter-municipal cooperation. Public-private partnership is considered to be a form of mutually beneficial cooperation; its problems are revealed and its future is defined. Inter-municipal cooeration plays a significant role in development of social infrastructure of resource-extraction territories.
