Аннотация

The article emphasizes the essence of the service sector and the socio-economic importance of its rapid development. Key words: living standards, quality of life, demand, consumption, population savings, wages, incomes. Consistent reforms in our country, measures aimed at restoring sustainable economic growth, modernization of society, liberalization of the economy are leading to significant quantitative and qualitative changes in the national economy. The main goal of the ongoing reforms and radical changes in the path of socio-economic development is to continuously improve the living standards of the country's population and restore it to its previous state. In the implementation of this important task, that is, in the formation of a decent standard of living and quality of life for the population of the country, the service sector has a special role. The rapid development of the service sector in the country and a sharp increase in its share in GDP allow solving several important socio-economic problems, such as employment, increasing real incomes, improving the welfare of all segments of the population. One of the peculiarities of the development of the national economy of Uzbekistan is that the share of services in the country's GDP is growing from year to year, and during the pandemic period there is a significant decline. In 2015, this figure was 48.9 per cent, and by 2020 it will be 33.5 per cent. In the Samarkand region, the share of services in GDP (47.2- 30.9%, respectively). The rapid development of this sector in the future is one of the key components of the country's long-term macroeconomic policy. The fact that the President of the Republic of Uzbekistan Sh.M.Mirziyoev raised the issue of increasing the share of tourism services in GDP to 28% by 2035 is clear proof of our opinion. Today, innovation processes in service enterprises in the country are developing slowly, the population's demand for services is not sufficiently met. "Экономика и социум" №11(90) 2021 www.iupr.ru 591 This, in turn, harms the formation and development of the service sector, which to some extent reduces its impact on the living standards of the population33. In our opinion, the existence of such a situation is determined by the lack of a scientifically based, systematic methodology to address the above problems, in particular, to improve the welfare of the population through the rapid development of services and improving their quality. The lack of a unified concept for the gradual development of the system of services to all segments of the population following market relations and thus increasing the welfare of the entire population of the country also requires extensive research in this area. Given the above, it can be noted that one of the most pressing issues is a comprehensive and in-depth analysis of the increase in living standards of the population based on the development of the service sector, the development of scientifically based proposals and practical recommendations to improve its theoretical and methodological basis. Today, government reforms to address the effects of the epidemic and the coronavirus pandemic are bearing fruit. However, it is natural that the negative developments in the economy with the implementation of reforms will affect the socio-economic development of the country, the living standards of the population and the level of economic security of the country. According to the International Monetary Fund's baseline forecasts based on the forecasts of the cessation of coronavirus pandemic expansion and the gradual recovery of economic activity from the second half of the year, the world economy will shrink by 3.0% in 2020. In our country, too, the coronavirus pandemic has had a significant impact on the economy, causing a slowdown in economic growth. In his address to the Parliament of the Republic of Uzbekistan on December 29, 2020, President Shavkat Mirziyoyev noted that this year, unlike previous years, coincided with a difficult period, a global catastrophe called the coronavirus pandemic. To address the problems, the Decree "On additional measures to support the population, sectors of the economy and businesses during the coronavirus34 pandemic" provides for strengthening social protection and ensuring the sustainability of economic sectors, as well as, requires special attention to the support of some business entities. At the current stage of the development of society, the economy has become a complex of industries that include not only production but also thousands of services. The national economy, which has been established in the years of independence of the Republic of Uzbekistan, the new economic relations that are emerging as a 33 http://bukvi.
