Abstract

Causes of economic, legal and political problems and high rates of unemployment in the RH (Republic of Croatia) are a result of arguably the wrong processes of investment by the state, primarily in physical capital (red curve), instead of people (blue curve), which means that at the national level the investments must first be made in their people which will then, with their more developed knowledge and motivation, contribute to universal progress. Starters of such growth and new employment should be the fairest and most capable individuals of the company. If the critical mass does not support this approach, the RH will continue to stagnate and fall behind, and the unemployment rate shall reach a new maximum limit. Newest study found that the degree of development of some countries and the employment rate over 90% explains the human capital, where the greatest impact is made by moral capital, followed by intellectual capital, and then, finally, social capital. Responsible people in the government and parliament must recognize what is the basis for larger investment in the people, and investing in human resource development should be a priority strategy.
