Сравнительный анализ производительности труда и уровня благосостояния населения в Беларуси и других странах мира

Abstract

The necessity to solve the issues of the population welfare in industrial countries led their leaders and society to the conclusion on the necessity of combining of the advantages of the social state and market economy. The U.S. experience of realization of “the New Deal”, i. e. social orientation of the market in the post-war Germany and other countries proves that this choice was not a mistake. High economic efficiency supported with market relations and competition, along with social justice form the basis for successful establishment of a new economic order showing high rates of growth in the economy and socio-political stability. The Republic of Belarus has also chosen this way. The article focuses mainly on the analysis of correlations between the productivity rate and workers’ income, their social status and life expectancy. The author also draws attention to the alarming dependence of life expectancy figures on the correlation with the incomes of the richest and poorest sections of population.
