The target of this paper~ is to demonstrate the connection among human development, globalization, and institutional quality. The second part provides the methodology of measuring the overall globalization with an emphasis on the 2011 Konjunkturforschungsstelle (KOF) Globalization Index. The KOF Globalization Index includes economic, social, and political contexts. The third part shortly introduces one of the parameters of institutional quality--Human Development Index (HDI) (or rather Inequality-adjusted Human Development Index (IHDI) as the real indicator of the level of human development) and its methodology and results. For the analysis, two out of three dimensions of IHDI were used (long and healthy life and access to education) and two dimensions of Globalization Index were employed (social and political globalization). The third part compares indices and scores together, analyzes them, and assesses the relationships between the HDI and the Globalization Index. It is possible to conclude from the results achieved in the study that the social globalization has stronger linkages with human development than with the political globalization, yet, spurring growth rates and reduced poverty in countries with poor institutions cannot be achieved simply by globalizing their economies.展开更多

China is the world' s most populous nation, and it is the world' s most resource-rich countries of labor. Full development of human resources enhance the people' s level of education in general, which is today' s global trend of development of human resources in order to enhance the comprehensive national strength, but also the inevitable choice based on China' s basic national conditions of building a moderately prosperous society. It is faced with competition for talent era of knowledge economy, and it is in the face of economic globalization and integration trends in the face of China' s human resources situation. How to make heavy population burden into a country rich in human resources and how to play this advantage, how to create hundreds of millions of high-quality workers and technical personnel, innovative talents, education, especially higher education in China will play an increasingly important role.展开更多
