Genesis of the Concept of Human Capital in the Post-industrial Society

Journal Title: Бізнес Інформ - Year 2014, Vol 5, Issue 0

Abstract

The goal of the article is the study of genesis of the concept of human capital in the post-industrial society. Based on the analysis and generalisation of scientific works of many scientists, the article shows that development of the concept of human capital is a process of accumulation of knowledge and scientific views on a human being and the role of a human being in economy. At this stage this concept finds its further development within the framework of modern conceptual approaches to human capital, which more adequately reflect real social and economic processes that take part in the post-industrial society, giving impulse for further development of the theory of human capital. In the result of the study the article reveals that modern conceptual approaches to identification of human capital are significantly determined by qualitative features of information economy and knowledge economy. The article identifies their influence upon development of human capital and upon possible change of its nature, which calls for an objective necessity of creation of a new concept of human capital. Further development of the concept of human capital (and possibly creation of a new concept) flows out of objective regularities and main features of information economy and knowledge economy, which result in changing internal needs of development of the socio-economic system (organisation, region and country) and an employee as a personality.
