In the article, the theoretical and practical essence of the phenomenon of the welfare state is analyzed. It is argued that the main tasks of the state should not be limited only to political governance, but also to ensuring social justice, improving the standard of living of the population, and protecting the vulnerable. The article examines the views of such thinkers as Aristotle, John Locke, John Stuart Mill, and John Rawls on the theory of justice, the principles of the modern welfare state, as well as the practical experience of different countries.
