Abstract

   The article concludes a series of studies on the differentiation of the standard of living of the Russian population in the context of threats to economic security.

   The focus is on the real monetary incomes of the population, the level of poverty, the decile coefficient, the Gini coefficient, as well as the ratio of per capita income and the minimum subsistence level.

   This part of the cycle examines the threats caused by the high differentiation of the standard of living of the population in Russia, as well as measures to increase the level of economic security in the social sphere. The article provides basic recommendations for public policy based on the research conducted in this article and the three preceding parts.
