International legal principles of cooperation in the field of social security

The research deals with the issues of cooperation between states in the field of legal regulation of social security. In the context of globalization, the emergence of new social challenges, such as the coronavirus pandemic, international migration, the activities of transnational corporations, joint measures are needed to ensure that all states ensure minimum standards of social security. Issues of international legal regulation of social security are considered in relation to the Millennium Sustainable Development Goals, as well as in relation to the standards and norms established at the UN and ILO levels. International social security standards are researched and reviewed within the framework of our proposed classification. It is proposed to base the classification on social relations governed by the corresponding numbers of law. Legal measures are proposed to improve the efficiency of legal regulation of social security at the national level.
