Abstract

The quality of life of people in societies depends heavily on the economy, and in order to ensure the humane and socio-economic development of people and human society, the current economy needs to be humanized. In this context, the study focuses on two important assumptions - the renaissance of the main goal of the economy and a humane approach to human resources, which are increasingly taking a back seat in the current profit-oriented economy and economic prosperity. It draws on the views of the economist L. von Mises, but also outlines the views of contemporary economists and representatives of the social and human sciences, which provide impulses for reflection on the real reasons for the renaissance of the fundamental goal of the economy and also for ensuring humane approaches to human resources and, ultimately, for reforming the whole economy in favour of the human. So as to bring it at least partially closer to the moral ideal represented by the model of a humanistic economy.
