Abstract

The decisive role of human capital in the development of society and the state is undeniable. The degree of change in the qualitative characteristics of human capital under the influence of successive basic technologies is the subject of scientific discussion and depends on the attitude of society towards one or another critical technology and the type of socio-economic system that dominates the territory. Therefore, taking into account the factors associated with its formation under the influence of successive technologies and assessing the contribution of human capital to the economic growth of the state is now increasingly relevant. Moreover, when allocating resources, the problems of human capital development have to compete with other problems, and the qualities of individuals necessary for social development are the subject of discussion by science and society as a whole. The authors developed the concept of the model of “Synergetic cycles”, formed by scientific and technological revolutions, during which the prevailing technologies in the cycle, synergistically interacting with human capital, change. The model is intended for economic assessment of the effectiveness of investing in human capital and has been tested at the level of socio-economic systems of the mesoscale. During the research, special attention was paid to the issues of the current transition to a new synergetic cycle due to the critical increase in the importance of science and innovation for successful social development and geopolitical competition.
