Abstract:Although economists have been inferred from the macroeconomic level that the human capital is the main cause of economic growth. The microanalysis of human capital of Becker and Mincer were not sufficient to constitute the micro basis of our understanding about the relationship between the macroeconomic variables. From the perspective of personal investment to explain the formation of human capital, it only indicates that the stocks of human assets change and potential value-added functions of human capital, can not explain the source of human capital formation and the nature of the relation between the investment and earnings, and also could not explain why the owners of human capital obtain earnings and how to get benefits from value-added of factors. In this paper, author using the analysis method of duality of the economic activities, from the aspects of history and institution, proved that human capital is the product of opposites and unity of the productive forces and production relations, the transformation of modes of production, and the harmonization of “the mechanism for coordination interests” and “the mechanism for optimizing efficiency”.
