The paper contains analyses of life expectancy mainly in the context of its relation to the level of individual’s education. The data was referred to the specific Eurostat researches which take the above mentioned criterion of population’s division into consideration. 14 EU countries (including Poland) and 2 countries, which are not in the EU territory, were included in the research. The project was carried out from 2007 to 2010. The life expectancy of 30‑year‑old individuals was examined, assuming that the first effects of investment in the human capital connected with education are revealed at this age (deliberations were set in the economic theory of the human capital). Keywords: human capital, investments in human capital, health in theory of human capital, education, life expectancy.

In this chapter, we quantify the differences in the hourly salaries of female software developers with their male counterparts using the human capital model based on economic theory. In addition to the gender factor, the human capital model includes other control variables that may account for the salary differences such as education, experience, and specific skills, such as object-oriented programming and SQL. Our models indicate that gender is a statistically and practically significant factor in assessing a software developer’s salary.

The paper considers the evolution of the category “political” in the development of economic theory of the XVIII – XX centuries. It demonstrates the departure of economic science from ideological assessments characteristic for the antagonistic relations of early capitalism. In the 1940s – 1950s F. von Hayek reintroduces the concept of “enemy” into economic researches, which is met with strong rejection by the Western establishment, which is under the influence of Keynesianism. F. von Hayek is one of the founders of neoliberalism, within the framework of which an antagonistic confrontation between the “blind forces of the market” and the “dictatorship of a group of people” is being constructed. Thus, a dilemma is imposed, which does not provide an opportunity to understand the mechanisms of market design. Von Hayek is making great efforts to create a transatlantic network of neoliberal organizations based on the Mont Pelerin Society. Long work leads to the fact that in the 1970s. neoliberalism is becoming the ideology - hegemon. At present, the political category retains its significance in economic science. Ideological constructs such as human capital, private money, diffused knowledge, despite their utopianism, continue to transform reality

Marx and PedagogyMarx first theory of education was written in his Thesis on Feuerbach. His later positive proposals were sources of the official pedagogy of the DDR, while his analyses of ›Kapital‹ contributed to a critical economic theory of ›human capital‹. But only the ›freudomarxism‹ of the Critical Theory and especially of Siegfried Bernfeld contributed to a critical theory of education. After all was Marx the founder of a revolutionary theory of ›Bildung‹.

An attempt to analyze human capital as an economic category is made. Human capital is one of the most discussed areas in economic theory and is most directly connected with other scientific areas, primarily with pedagogical and medical science, as well as with physical culture and sports. Research methods: analysis of scientific and methodological literature. The paper defines the concept of "human capital". The structural components of human capital, its place and role in the modern economy are formulated and analyzed. An analytical review of the regulatory documents of the Russian Federation concerning human capital is made. It is established that the fundamental component of the development of human capital is human health and the analysis of the influence of physical culture and recreation activities on the development of the labor potential of the younger generation is made.
