The economics on human development can be divided into two types, which can be differentiated from broad sense and narrow sense. In the narrow sense, it can be defined as the doctrine to examine inherent law of human development as well as its relationship with the development of economic and society under the situation of modem market economic. In terms of the research object, it refers to the studies on which relation of production and its corresponding institutional structure more favorable for the self- development of individuals during the production process on the basis of the current productivity, along with the influence on the development of individuals involved in the political, social and creative activities, as well as the interactive relationship between human development and economic development. As for the research method, first of all, it should choose the theoretical paradigm or foundation of the corresponding subject. The paradigm for the economics on human development is based on Marxist theoretical economy, which consists of three main theories including Marxist pure economy, Marxist political economy, and Marxist institutional economics.
