Abstract

One of the frequently used indicators of the national social development level is a human development index (HDI). Social development of the region involves improvement of living standards of the population which are characterized by the HDI components (incomes, life expectancy, education). The article describes the life quality in the Republic of Bashkortostan, presents the structure and dynamics of the HDI components for the period under study. The factors affecting the dynamics of indicators were identified. The comparative analysis of the national and reginal HDI was made. The analysis of the HDI dynamics showed a weakening position of Bashkortostan in the regional ranking. Negative changes are typical of all the HDI components. A low increase in the HDI is due to low salaries, loss of interest in the development of human capital and incentives to increase productivity, healthcare and education systems commercialization, and insufficient modernization rates. The article identifies key points of social development of the region.
