Modern interdisciplinary studies of human capital have allowed to change the understanding of its structure, incorporating not only the knowledge, skills, competencies and talents of the individual, but also his or her outlook, value attitudes, features of mentality and thinking in general. The concept of human capital makes it possible to identify various, including non-economic, motives of subjects of socially responsible activities, to understand why people are interested in implementing socially oriented programs. Socially responsible activities and human capital mutually condition each other: participation in socially responsible activities is an investment in human capital, and developed human capital is one of the conditions for effective socially responsible activities. The motives for socially responsible activities can be the desire to establish social justice, a desire to make the world more reliable and trustworthy, care for people, strengthen and spread social solidarity, increase the wellbeing of local communities, etc.Participation as a subject of socially responsible activities helps an individual to develop cognitive and social behavioral skills, provides access to information and practices necessary to adapt to the modern social environment. Socially responsible activity as a reflection of a specific system of thinking allows developing such important skills and qualities in modern society as purposefulness, empathy, willingness to take risks, independence in decision making, ability to work in a situation of uncertainty, ability to search for nonstandard solutions necessary for representatives of various specialties for successful implementation of professional functions, as well as contributing to the growth of the national economy. The advantages offered by socially responsible activities encourage individuals to participate in socially significant projects and companies, social institutions and society as a whole - to stimulate and support this kind of activity.

Capital Development

The concept of human capital development has been actively developed by the UN since the end of the twentieth century, the main principle of which is to expand the opportunities of each person to realize their potencies and aspirations, to lead a healthy, full-fledged creative life. And this, in turn, is the main meaning and purpose of the socio-economic development of modern society. The criterion of social development is thus the individual. Understanding this idea at the national level has been reflected in a series of national reports on human development in Kazakhstan published in recent years. The formation of human capital involves the humanization of both the educational process, i.e., the creation of conditions aimed at the disclosure and development of the individual’s abilities, his positive self-realization. the goal of education is the need to develop a value-oriented personality. The idea of humanization contributes to the renewal of the process of education in social institutions, which should be carried out through the formation of educational systems.

The Foucault’s interpretation of the police, its theoretical substantiation, the range of powers and managerial tasks in modernist discourses. The French philosopher emphasized it should the modern concept of “police” does not coincide with its original theories of modern times. The doctrines of modern political scientists idealized the vocation of the police and identified it with the entire government, providing it with universal means of implementing the state interest. Considering the police from the perspective of “history of thought” Foucault notes that it is the unlimited nature of police functions gave the modern government to approve a disciplinary society, a new form of government - bio-power. This form of power totally controlled the individual, “took care of him” at all levels of biological life and, above all, the depths of consciousness - artificially created his authenticity. At the same time, in the theories of political scientists, the police received the status of a self-regulatory body, whose activities were not strictly controlled by state laws. In this case, the police, in the imaginary sense, is the living embodiment of state interest, morality and integrity, the formative and corrective body of state power. In order to form a disciplined and productive life, the police must direct individuals to regulation, to their temporal and hierarchical repetition. The a priori qualities of the police and its all-encompassing powers form the basis for the assertion of the idea of a “police state” and its radical form of panopticon. It is thanks to the idea of panopticon, its practical implementation by the police in modern society - the formation of disciplinary practice of continuous control in the social institutions of modernism.

The relevance of the article is associated by the author with the complex socioeconomic, political realities in which modern Russian society finds itself. The author turns to the category “social time” to characterize the changes in various spheres of society’s life. Focusing on such modern trends as digitalization, commercialization, atomization of society and the individual, the author turns to the category of “human capital”, designed to smooth out the indicated negative phenomena and restore the integrity of the social communications system. As a confirmation of the importance of human capital development at the state level, the article analyzes the fundamental doctrinal documents in the area under consideration. The author is elected for understanding the Priority-2030 program as an urgent initiative aimed, among other things, at building up human capital with the help of the education system. The author analyzes various authors’ positions in order to identify threats that impede the development of human capital within the education system. The methodological basis of the study was the methods of content analysis of the works of leading researchers, as well as discourse analysis of publications in the media and information resources. Analysis of the regulatory framework, as well as significant research platforms, allowed us to conclude that the principles of commercialization, digitalization, and bureaucratization prevail in the modern educational paradigm. At the same time, national priorities for building up human capital require a value-semantic foundation, which culture and educational activities are capable of providing.

The paper discusses the interdisciplinary studies of the meaning. Being a difficult object to analyze, the meaning could be considered as an «intermediate» between the micro-level of individual consciousness and the macro-level of social institu­tions. The paper shows the possibilities of sociological and psychological para­digms in the analysis of the meaning as a unit of language consciousness. Thus represented, the meaning is a traditional subject of psycholinguistics. The mean­ings changeable in time are captured in the results of mass associative experi­ments. The paper studies the special properties of the meaning, such as «open­ness» at the same time to the individual minds and to social institutions; external conditionality of consistency; bimodality, or autopoiesis, which is the ability to si­multaneously be an element and a principle of system organization. Due to these properties of the meaning it is possible to combine psycholinguistic methods with approaches from other sciences, as well as to use an integrative methodology. The paper demonstrates the possibilities of interdisciplinary approach from the perspective of the sources of the meanings, including social actors, social in­stitutions or individuals.

An important task of education, in addition to the transfer of special knowledge and skills, is the formation of the structural components of the personality, which will ensure the high efficiency of future professional activities. The processes of integration of the Ukrainian education system into the European world educational space pose for educational institutions the problem of improving the quality of educational services, ensuring the proper level of the educational process. Modern society is largely interested in the psychological resources of the individual as the basis of all other resource components of the development of civilization. That is why the qualities of the person, which allow her to independently and actively act, make decisions, flexibly adapt to changing conditions of life, achieve success, professionally self-realize, should be formed and developed at all stages of education. Тhe main purpose of the article is to analyze the mechanisms of formation and functioning of the individual in the process of learning and professional activity and to provide recommendations to future specialists on their effective use of methods of psychological tools, the formation of psychological culture for the successful implementation of their personal and professional self-realization. The relevance of the topic is due to the current important changes in the educational system, related, in particular, to the understanding of a person as an entity - a person and a subject of professional activity. Special attention is paid to the problem of the development of the personality of a specialist, the formation of his professional values. We concentrate on the need to ensure the productive orientation of the individual, updating the motives for achieving it, increasing the need for self-development and self-realization, as well as increasing the adequacy of the tasks of the educational process to the real tasks that applicants have to solve at different stages of vocational training.

The Relationship

The theoretical projects of Max Weber and Emile Durkheim address the character anddynamics of the modern social order. The implications of modern society on the nature of being human in a social world are vast, as demonstrated by the myriad upheavals witnessed since the ‘long’ 19th century2. But what are the implications of modern society on what it means to be a moral being? How do individualism and social solidarity coexist? The following addresses the complexity of these questions by analyzing Weber and Durkheim’s perspectives on the transition to modern life and the relationship between modern society and the individual. With Marx as a theoretical backdrop, this essay examines how Weber and Durkheim conceived of the problems of modern society by underscoring the dualities that are reflected in autonomy, authority, rationalization, and other dimensions of structure inherent within social organization and interdependence. These concomitant dualities evince the necessary doubleness of the human condition and how it enmeshes society in a “poverty of morality” (Durkheim, Suicide , p. 387) that is in need of a new moral order and greater social solidarity.

The article is devoted to the role of higher education in the formation and development of human capital in the conditions of innovative development of economy. In particular, this article reveals the essence of the concept of “human capital” and offers the author's interpretation taking into account the modernization of higher education. The author has shown that the innovative development of the economy largely depends on investment in human capital. Today, the main share of national wealth and the level of development of the country is determined by human capital. The key figure here is an educated, competitive, proactive, creative, and qualified person. Higher education plays the role of an environment where the interests of both society and the individual interact. During the period of active development of innovation, many members of society have to generate new knowledge, and even more people have to use this knowledge. Knowledge is the main environment in which modern society functions and develops. The development of human capital, the improvement of production, and the active introduction of innovations in almost all spheres of human life form the basis for further development of the innovative economy and become the basis for abandoning the country's raw material specialization, which, in turn, contributes to solving problems of health, science and education.

In recent years, much uncertainty and outright scepticism surrounds the notion of character. In the arts—painting, the novel, drama, film—the notion of character has receded into the background. The loss of character is especially conspicuous in those artistic forms in which it traditionally occupied centre-stage: drama, the novel, films. The withdrawal of character from the arts has in fact become a topic of debate in the theory and criticism of the arts. In the arts themselves, the difficulty, if not the impossibility, of attaining character is a common subject. Since ordinary sentiments are readily reflected in the fine arts, it is natural to suspect that character is not held in high regard in everyday life. Even if we take a dim view of the suggestion that the arts mirror ordinary sentiments with little distortion, a decline in the importance of character is evident in other humane disciplines: history is a striking example. Indeed, if we attend to our major social institutions—the family, the courts, the bureaucracy—it would be difficult to point to any in which the question of character is more than a peripheral concern. Indeed, it appears that the appraisal of character is of central concern in modern society only when the individual is in some way beyond the pale: in institutions of punishment, rehabilitation, mental health.

Since the individual effectiveness of one’s action has been proposed as one of the main demands of modern society, competence has become a crucial element for evaluating an individual. In the period of change created by the reforms of the educational system, it is important from a pedagogical viewpoint to provide students with relevant information and to promote their knowledge. And yet, it is even more important to teach students how to think, analyze and act as well as how to take responsibility and reach their goals. However, if the information within the content of education is not relevant to the realities that we face as well as the challenges of our time, if it does not promote the necessary competences and the school does not teach civic responsibility, then the actions of adolescents may not be civically responsible in the future. The publication characterizes the possibilities for modern adolescents to discover and to develop their social competence through the pedagogical process. Their social competence is the basis for their actions in the future and their actions will shape the future local, national and global events. The data that was acquired in this research confirms the necessity for a civically responsible education as well as the possible ways to achieve a civically responsible education through the focused implementation of the method- debating in the classes of the English language. The basis of value and the self-regulating expressions of responsibility, acquired through the learning of competences, are motivating the student to act with social responsibility that is directed towards him/herself, towards others and towards the entire society.
