Journal "Region: Economics and Sociology", 2011, vol. 1

Abstract: The author presents her analysis of the resource supply for reproducing human potentials both in regions and sectors. The international comparative position of Russia in human development is shown. The author concludes that most of Russians, due to their low wages or salaries, have not enough resources available to human reproduction while the public expenditures on education, healthcare and culture do not cover the lack of individual investments. The author, being based on the works of well-known economists, tries to answer the question whether a vicious circle of «a low labour productivity - low wages and salaries» could be destroyed and whether priorities of Russian social policy addressing contemporary challenges could be found.
