Putin back in 2018, actualizes the revision of social policy measures and the search for new criteria for determining its addresses. In recent years, not only the scientific community, but also local authorities who are directly involved in its implementation have been focusing on this issue. For this reason, in presenting the results of our analysis to a wide range of readers, we could not avoid the subjects of the correlation between poverty and social disadvantage assessed by life chances and risks. In this chapter we will focus our attention on the comparison of the lower stratum, distinguished by the indicators of the integral Index of life chances and risks, and the group of the poor, distinguished in accordance with the main theoretical and methodological approach to poverty used in Russia within the framework of the state social policy.
