The study of the problem of ensuring the independent life for people with disabilities is caused by the need to optimize inclusive processes in the society. Unfortunately, in modern Russian society the successful inclusion of people with disabilities into the society is hampered by numerous social barriers that restrict access to social resources and the way of life adopted in the community. All this leads to a serious social problem that requires scientific understanding and decision. An important tool in the study of this problem is the analysis of social environment at different levels of social reality in the context of ensuring the independent life for people with disabilities.
The purpose of this work is to identify and present the components of theoretical and empirical analysis of social environment at macro-, meso-and micro-levels of social reality in the context of ensuring the independent life for people with disabilities.
The novelty of the study is related to the creation of a methodology for empirical assessment of the social environment resource possibilities for people with disabilities in terms of ensuring their independent life.
The social environment analysis methodology presented in the article will help to identify the available resources and potential of each environment in the context of overcoming social exclusion and social distance between people with disabilities and the rest of the population.
