The relation between the population and economy is paid close attention to byexperts and scholars in past years, the setting-up and perfection of the human capitaltheoretical system have offered new theory, new method and new visual angle forresearch it. Today, the economic growth show more great dependence on the humancapital, to check and calculate regional human capital in an all-round way, and toanalyse the contribution level to the regional economic growth of regional humancapital, are important and essential. Taking Shandong as a study case, this paperattempts to make more discussion about these questions in two parts.Article ï¿ ? Studied on History and Current Situation of Human CapitalAccumulation in Shandong: While touching upon the human capital, domestic andinternational famous experts mainly focus their concentration on education,experience and health. On the basis of summarizing the theories of forefathers, thisarticle has put forward the basic understanding of the concept of human capital,namely the human capital is the synthesis of population and quality of the people,which taking education, experience and health as key variable. But come to read thereal example research results of the human capital at present, the education, as one ofkey variable of the human capital, seems to get relatively enough attention of mostscholars, even cause the illusion which people totally equate the human capital withthe educational capital, this is really a kind of shortcoming to holding the essence ofthe human capital overly and objectively. The complexity of human capitalinvestment and the lagging of human capital income are obstacle for using accountingstatistics index to check and calculate human capital, but original advantage fordemography index in measuring the human capital. I think the demography index canremedy the human capital positive research to a great extent further, then, design asystem with such three indexes as educating life (education), on-the-job life(experience) and expectancy life (health), which can relatively reflect the humancapital in an all-round way, and have introduced the technology of the life table whilemeasuring the health capital. Then, based on data of three censuses since reform andopening-up, in terms of history, industry, gender and region, demonstrate that thehuman capital accumulation in Shandong has displayed the characteristic of thefollowing aspects mainly: 1)As a substitute for the quantity of human capitalaccumulation, the quality increasing type is more obvious;2)Educate become themain source of human capital accumulation;3)The quality level of the experiencecapital is improving constantly;4)Aging population has suppressed the accumulationof the health capital;5)The difference of capital competitiveness of regional humancapital is with a wide gap.Article II Studied on the Contribution to the Economic Growth of HumanCapital Accumulation in Shandong: The economic growth is important for society tokeep continuously prosperous, especially for Shandong to builds the well-off society.As the important source of the modern economic growth, the human capital is notonly an essential key element, but also the efficiency source of the economic growth.In order to analyse the contribution level to the economic growth of human capitalobjectively, this text has introduced the quite popular producing function analyticapproach in the field of development economics, and has make a logical andmathematical deduction to apprehend the basic principle which analysed theproduction function approach of the economic growth source, and has put the humancapital, as an invest variable, into Cobb-Douglas' producing function. In order toweigh the contribution share to the economic growth of human capital overly, on thebasis of production function of the total supply and demand, I derive two newfunctions, one, in which the unit workforce's output (labor productivity) is the resultvariable, the other, in which the unit capital output (capital output ratio) is the resultvariable. Then, take Shandong as a study case, analyse the contribution level in suchthree aspects as the total economic growth, the labor productivity increases and thecapital output ratio increase. Since reform and opening-up, the share of contributionsto the increasing in total economic growth is 23%, to the increasing in laborproductivity is 17%, and to the increasing of material capital output ratio is 56%.Finally, according to the problem reflected while studying, summarize suchsuggestions for the purpose of promoting the future population in Shandong todevelop with economy in harmony as following: 1) to the material capital, theefficiency characteristic in stimulating the economic growth of the human capital isremarkable day by day, should make and implement the human capital developmentstrategy ahead of time;2) the quality of the people?ˉs contribution to the economicgrowth is much higher than the size of population, demand to control the total amountof population, and improve the quality of the people;3) aging population suppressesthe contribution of the health capital, demand to optimize the structure of age inworkforce's population;4) shift the surplus labor of primary industry, to improve thehuman capital output efficiency in primary industry;5) the ability of the humancapital to support the increasing progressively in the scale income is not obvious, so,must to improve the quality of education, and to pay attention to on-the-job training ,to promote the human capital to increase endogeny. |
