In this study, relationship of human development index, economic development and nutrition was evaluated. Data of Turkey, Norway, Korea, Italy, Greece, Bulgaria, Iran and the United States was compared. General situation in Turkey is evaluated and Solution proposals was presented. In the study, economic size and geographical proximity and similar features with Turkey, high Human Development Indexed countries was selected to compare with many parameters. Comparisons of the countries in terms of human development index and nutritional deficiency, showed similar characteristics with Iran, however, Turkey is dissociated from European countries, Korea and the US. As a result, the economic development level of countries have not seen that much more accurate results in the comparison of the human development index. ÖzetBu çalışmada insani gelişme endeksi, ekonomik gelişmişlik ve beslenme ilişkisi değerlendirilmiştir. Türkiye, Norveç, Kore, İtalya, Yunanistan, Bulgaristan, İran ve Amerika’ya ait veriler karşılaştırılmıştır. Türkiye’nin genel durumu değerlendirilmiş ve çözüm önerileri sunulmuştur. Çalışmada, Türkiye ile ekonomik büyüklük ve coğrafi yakınlık gibi özellikleri benzer ülkeler ve insani gelişmişlik endeksi yüksek olan ülkeler birçok parametre için karşılaştırılmıştır. Karşılaştırmalar, ülkemizin insani gelişmişlik endeksi ve beslenme yetersizliği açısından, İran ile benzer özellikler gösterdiğini ancak Avrupa ülkeleri, Kore ve ABD’den ayrıştığını göstermiştir. Sonuç olarak, ekonomik kalkınmışlık seviyesinin değil ülkeleri karşılaştırmada insani gelişmişlik endeksinin çok daha doğru sonuçlar verdiği görülmüştür.

The main purpose of the proposed paper is analysis of the current status and general trends of human development of Ukraine and selected indicators characterizing it. The methodology of the research draws upon the system-structural analysis and the methods of comparison, analysis, generalization and synthesis. The descriptive method and the method of scientific systematization were also used. Results. The four main components of the human development paradigm according to the 1995 Human Development Report are described, namely: productivity, equity, sustainability and empowerment. The essence of key indicators included in the system of measuring and monitoring human development is generalized, namely: average life expectancy at birth; the level of knowledge, measured by the average number of years spent on adult education and the expected years of study for first-graders; gross national income per capita in US dollars. The current state of human development in the world is analyzed, a rating of countries with the highest and lowest human development index during 1990-2018 is developed and the main causes of disparities in the level of human development between countries are identified. The countries with the largest increase and decrease in the human development index during the studied years are selected. The place of Ukraine in regional and global rankings is described. The dynamics of the human development index of Ukraine and neighboring countries during 1990-2018 is analyzed. The key issues that led to the economic, financial and political crisis and, consequently, the decline of the human development index in Ukraine since independence, including the global financial crisis of 2008 and the annexation of the Autonomous Republic of Crimea and the occupation of the territory of the eastern regions of the state (Donetsk and Luhansk regions) are highlighted. The scientific novelty consists in the revelation of the actual features of human potential development and its individual indicators in Ukraine and in the world. The dynamics and the current state of development of the components of the human development index of Ukraine are determined. A comparative assessment of the dynamics of human development of Ukraine and neighboring countries is given. The practical significance lies in the fact that the main provisions and conclusions of the paper can be used in further in-depth studies of the problems and prospects of human development in Ukraine.

Ухудшение качественных характеристик населения (показателей здоровья, уровня культуры и образования) необходимо относить к наиболее значимым негативным факторам социального развития России и ее регионов. В статье дана оценка современного уровня развития человеческого потенциала в России и субъектах Дальнего Востока России на основе данных индекса человеческого развития (Human Development Index – HDI). Проведено сопоставление HDI России HDI с некоторых стан Европы и Азиатско-Тихоокеанского региона, имеющих самые высокие значения (баллы) индекса за период 1990–2018 гг. В межстрановом сравнении выявлены наиболее проблемные компоненты человеческого потенциала для России. В межрегиональном сравнении за 2000–2016 гг. проведена группировка регионов по HDI, направленная на выявление и сравнительную оценку перспективности субъектов Дальнего Востока России по формированию, развитию и возможному сохранению человеческого потенциала. С помощью корреляционного анализа выявлена зависимость между значением инвестиций в основной капитал на душу населения и индексом HDI, а также составляющими его индексами долголетия, доходов. Результаты группировки субъектов Дальнего Востока России по HDI и по качеству жизни населения за 2010–2016 гг. в определенной степени совпадают. Показано, что сдерживающими факторами социально-экономического развития регионов, а следовательно, низких значений HDI и индексов качества жизни населения являются недостаточное развитие социальной сферы, низкие уровень и качество жизни населения, ухудшающие качество человеческого потенциала и препятствующие его повышению. Необходимо проводить более эффективную политику в социальной сфере с акцентом на увеличение бюджетных и привлечение частных инвестиций в экономику регионов. The deterioration of the qualitative characteristics of the population (health indicators, insufficient level of culture and education) should be attributed to the most significant negative factors in the social development of Russia and its regions. The article assesses the current level of human development in Russia and the Far Eastern regions on the basis of human development index (HDI) data. The HDI of Russia is compared with that of some countries of Europe and the Asia-Pacific region, which have the best values (points) of the human development index for the period of 1990–2018. In a cross-country comparison, the most problematic components of human potential for Russia were identified. In the interregional comparison for 2000–2016, a grouping of regions by HDI was carried out, aimed at identifying promising and less promising subjects of the Far East for the formation, development and possible preservation of human potential. Using the correlation analysis, the relationship between the value of investment in fixed assets per capita and the HDI index, as well as its indices of longevity and income, is revealed. The results of the grouping of FER subjects by HDI are confirmed by the types of regions according to the quality of life of the population for 2010–2016. It is shown that the low level of development of the social sphere, the level and quality of life of the population, which reduce the quality of human potential and prevent its increase, are the constraining factors of the socio-economic development of the regions and, therefore, low HDI and QOL values. It is necessary to pursue a more effective social policy, with a focus on increasing budgetary and attracting private investment in the regional economy.

In the context of the global concept of human development, human development is one of the ultimate goals of economic growth, which is embodied in the development strategy of the regions, Chernihiv region in particular. Demographic indicators of the region have a negative trend. In 1995-2019, the population of the region decreased by 27.5%. Migration growth is also negative. As a result, the regional human development index is low (16 out of 22 positions). To radically change the situation, administrative and social measures are required above all for "comfortable life", "social environment" and "decent work" blocks. In the context of decentralization of power, these issues should be solved at the regional level. The article presents the most acute problems and priority measures that will improve the human development index. The creation of new jobs will reduce the unemployment rate, which is at the level of 11.2% of the economically active population. Besides only by increasing household incomes it will be possible to raise the share of expenditures on health care, education, and cultural development. In 2017, households in Chernihiv region in the village spend UAH 214.80 on health care per month per household, for education - UAH 9.60. per family, in the city - UAH 337.55 and UAH 103.76, respectively. Leisure expenses also differ significantly and amount to UAH 155.45 in the city and UAH 43.42 in the village per month per household. The development of competencies and skills on the basis of lifelong learning will allow equalizing the personnel imbalance in the labor market. The approximate financial plan for 2021-2023 for the implementation of the program “Human Resources Development” is UAH 2,102,801. Implementation of the main provisions of regional human development policy will ensure the optimization of the territorial organization of regional economic systems, increase the efficiency of social production, improve the quality of life of the territorial communities’ population, and accelerate region’s development.

Report Presentation

The subject of study is the human development index in Primorsky Krai. The paper focuses on the relationship between the concepts «human capital» and «human potential». The paper studied international experience, including the experience of the Russian Federation on the calculation of the human development index (HDI) based on the Human Development Report, presentation of programs of the United Nations (UNDP). The study shows the changes in the structure and methodology of calculating HDI since 2010. As an illustrative example, the index calculated for the Primorye Territory. The study revealed problems in the socio-economic development of the area and the ways of solving them. The measurement of each component of the HDI allows you to conduct further studies to fi nd out in what area of human capacity specifi cally, there are problems and why they are taking place. The paper used general theoretical (analysis, classifi cation, induction, deduction, etc.), as well as practical research methods (comparison and measurement).
