PREAMBLE

1 The urgency of the topic

People in all ages are always a central issue in the research of many philosophers as well as scholars of humanities and social sciences, and it is also a topic of particular interest of many international organizations and national governments In the context

of globalization, before the rapid development of the 4th technological revolution, human factors are increasingly holding a decisive position for all growth human development (HD) is therefore of particular concern to most countries in their development strategies and policies

In fact, the issue of HD in the current period is faced with many urgent global phenomena such as poverty, malnutrition due to lack of food, serious disease epidemic and affection Weaknesses in public health care, environmental pollution and the risk of resource depletion, education in many countries are inadequate and include crisis, corruption and moral and cultural degradation, etc The governments

of many countries and international organizations are working day by day to find ways to create a healthier world community so that everyone has a stable job and income, to live in Peaceful, safe and equal environment, health care, learning and education reachable guarantee of the spiritual life

In Vietnam, the issue of HD very early has been placed by President Ho Chi Minh and our Party in the important position of the revolution to liberate the nation and build socialism Especially, over the past 30 years, by changing the economic management mechanism, implementing the policy of opening the integration with the region and the world, promoting the cause of industrialization and modernization of the country for the goal of the rich people, strong country, fair, democratic and civilized society; comprehensive innovation has expanded the development space, the life of all aspects of human being has been improved

However, the HD career in our country is currently facing many difficulties, facing many problems of income, living environment, education, health, culture and ethics The 12th Party Congress defined comprehensive HD as one of the general tasks of developing the country in the period 2016-2020; In 6 key tasks, there are 4 tasks that address human issues After the Congress, the Central Conference Resolutions, especially Resolution 6 and 8, are in fact directly related to HD issues That is, in order to solve the socio-economic issues, HD must be considered a special issue that needs special attention and is addressed

As a newly re-established province, in more than 30 years of renovation, Vinh Phuc has become a province of rapid economic growth, relatively developed industry, the material and spiritual life of the people has been constantly improved, only HDI numbers are also significantly improved However, besides, Vinh Phuc still has many minor limitations It is the differentiation between rich and poor with increasing signs; education at all levels and regions remains inadequate; Health and public health care situation has not yet reached the expected level; degrading social morality; social evils show signs of becoming more complex than before these are objective issues On the subjective side, considering HD as a cross-cutting task in public activities, really putting people at the center of socio-economic development

has not been realized and implemented too good The direction and resolution of arising problems in HD in practice is not timely and not thorough All of those limitations, weaknesses and annoyances, in fact constitute the problem of HD in Vinh Phuc - both theoretically and practically

With all the issues raised for the socio-economic development of Vinh Phuc province

in the current period, HD is, in fact, a matter of special importance, playing a role is the goal, the driving force of solving economic, political, cultural and social issues

To achieve Vinh Phuc's expectation of fast and sustainable development to suit the requirements of the time In the period of industrialization and modernization in the context of current international integration, the issue of HD in Vinh Phuc province needs to be accurately identified, deeply researched, properly assessed the situation and discovered correct the problem and have a proper and reasonable solution Therefore, I chose the topic "Issue of HD in vinh phuc province curently" with the desire to contribute to that research

The development of human beings has been mentioned by many scientists such

as Pham Minh Hac, Dang Huu Toan, Nguyen Van Huyen and Ho Quy Quy Starting from the perspective of HD is the center of all economic and social development Research focuses on such aspects as: comprehensive HD as a goal that the society needs to build with the required capacities; HD requires quantification by social measures, HD is the basis of social development In addition to the above content, the thesis also overview the theories of HD on Physical, mental, HDI tools, HD indexes and the role of poverty reduction in relation to current levels of HD

1.2 Studies related to HD in Vietnam

Studies on the HD situation in Vietnam (for example, Human and HD of Ho Si Quy, HD in the period of industrialization and modernization of Pham Minh Stem,

HD in Vietnam: Current Situation and Solutions by Phung Danh Cuong, Some Basic Issues in HD in Vietnam (Scientific Topic by Mai Quynh Nam) It focuses on assessing the achievements and limitations of comprehensive HD, both as the subject and the subject of the socialist construction in our country, the research on

development status Humans on the national scale often assess qualitative issues of cultural or ethical issues, lifestyle in the context of market economy and international integration In order to study the situation of HD at the local level in Vinh Phuc province, apart from considering objective and subjective factors affecting

In addition to evaluating achievements and theses, the thesis discusses the limitations

of HD in Vinh Phuc Province, which are emerging issues that show the mismatch between economic development social and HD, HD with physical strength and intellectual development, and HD with increasing poverty

1.3 Researches related to HD orientation and solutions in Vietnam

HD research projects often offer solutions and emphasize fundamental solutions, which primarily affect HD, because national research projects often offer Macro policies to invest in HD goals (Comprehensive HD in the period of industrialization and modernization by Pham Minh Hac as Editor, National Annual

HD Report 2011, UNDP HD Report 2015, HD in the Northwest of Vietnam by Pham Thanh Nghi .) The dissertation adopts these views and continues to introduce micro-specific policies to build a system of solutions for HD in Vinh Phuc province

to meet the requirements of economic development , the social aim of the province is

to bring happiness and prosperity for the people

1.4 HD research projects in Vinh Phuc province

At present, there is no scientific research on HD in Vinh Phuc province However, there are some works with more or less related content that focus on the study of human resources To meet the requirements of socio-economic development,

or be reflected in the socio-economic development policies of the provincial Party Committee and the provincial People's Committee through the detailed planning and policies on industrial development , agriculture, health, education, population (Vinh Phuc site (draft, 2012) edited by Nguyen Ngoc Thanh and Nguyen The Truong Editor; the poor in mountainous areas in the province (2004) (Le Van Phong's basic level of science); socio-economic changes in V Vinh Phuc since the reestablishment

of the province (1997-2005) by Nguyen The Truong, Vinh Phuc Book for 10 years of development (1997-2007) by Provincial Party Committee - People's Council, Vinh People's Committee The publication of the 12th, 13th, XIV, XV, and XVI Party congress of Vinh Phuc province since the reestablishment of the province (1997-2005) of Nguyen The School .) However, the thesis references these quantitative data assessing the level of HD in the province

2 The thesis issues continue to study

The researches on HD in our country have systematized, analyzed and clarified the worldview and methodology of Marxist-Leninist views of President Ho Chi Minh Minh, the Communist Party of Viet Nam and UNDP's HD Indicators, to study the HD situation in our country However, up to now, no works have applied these concepts to HD research in Vinh Phuc province Therefore, the thesis researches and clarifies the following basic contents:

Firstly, the concept of HD is very broad, in the context of the thesis, the study of the Marxist-Leninist point of view of President Ho Chi Minh of the Communist Party

of Viet Nam and UNDP is aimed at developing theoretical framework and criteria for research and development of people in Vinh Phuc province today The basic criteria

are: HD in Vinh Phuc province in terms of income, physical, mental, cultural, mental health, HDI poverty reduction

Second, the thesis considers objective conditions and subjective factors affecting

HD in Vinh Phuc province Based on the defined criteria, the thesis evaluates achievements, identifies problems in economic development, social in general and

HD in particular

Thirdly, in order to achieve the goal of HD, there should be a system of synchronous solutions, inheriting the results of research in the preceding works the popularity and specificity in terms of the perception of the Party committees, administrations, branches, unions and people and on the development of the economy, health, culture and education and on hunger eradication and poverty alleviation in order to build and develop sustainable human beings

Chapter 1 GENERAL REASONING ABOUT PEOPLE AND HUMAN

DEVELOPMENT 1.1 Marxist-Leninist philosophy of HD

1.1.1 The view of Marxist-Leninist philosophy about people

People are a social - biological entity - People are "human nature of nature" Basic human activity is the production of material goods by individuals who possess the right to own certain production materials, operating within the framework

of certain production and communication relations

Man is not only a pure product of the situation, but a person who is the subject of circumstances, playing a decisive role in the movement of history

Human nature is not immutable, but it always moves, changes with the change

of life situation, of the age, associated with the mode of production of a certain social regime

1.1.2 The view of Marxist-Leninist philosophy of HD

1.1.2.1 HD is closely linked to socio-economic development and the activities of human beings themselves

When researching people and developing human beings, Marx and Engels always consider human beings in the course of history, in connection with creative human activities - human beings, human beings Associated with practice

Man is the subject who determines all economic and social transformations, as well as the product of history, through practical activity, in which man is more and more perfect, HD is the inevitable result of human activity itself

HD is the development of human cultural values

1.1.2.3 HD is associated with the overcoming of alienation

In order to develop human beings, it is necessary to create socio-economic conditions for people to escape from all "slavery", to lead the real man to become the subject of society, to remove man from all alienation status Therefore, in order to liberate and develop human beings, human beings must create their own circumstances, to abolish the old social regimes and build new socialist regimes which open social and economic conditions It is a prerequisite for the improvement

of all aspects of human life and also from which human beings gradually step up to become the real subject of society, the new master of the development of oneself At that time, the new socio-economic development was truly human, by man and for man in the sense that all development came back to the highest purpose of serving

HD not only improves human material life on the basis of economic development, but more importantly improves their qualifications and capacity, in which education is considered to be the factor The foundation for bringing people into their own "capacity" and, of course, to build up a comprehensive human being must be comprehensive education

According to C.Mark and Philippe, the goal of economic, social or developmental development, social progress must take HD as a metaphor for thinking through all that progress to HD, "for" the development of human nature " Only human beings have a purpose in themselves for the advancement of man"(1)

1.2 The views of President Ho Chi Minh and the Communist Party of Vietnam

of the whole of the society are organically bound together, in which the personal interest is the direct motive" (2)

In every revolutionary period and especially in the current period of national renewal, the Party has always regarded human beings as both a target and a motive force for socio-economic development and economic and social development Ensure the goal for the happiness of the people and the people themselves Workers are both subject and object of society, therefore, it is necessary to put "human and HD placed

at the center of socio-economic strategy, Assembly, improve conditions for HD "(3)

1.2.2 The views of President Ho Chi Minh and the Communist Party of Vietnam on

HD

1.2.2.1 HD in terms of physical strength

HD is first and foremost a physical improvement for the individual and for the whole community, for human health is the first source of labor, physical force is the physical element that directly affects longevity, to raising the mind, the spirit to enable people to participate in society

In order to raise the physical strength of people, to raise the material life and raise the people's income level through the policies of economic and social development to create conditions for equality, the people are enriched by your own strength

Promote activities and mobilize resources on health and sports to improve the health of the people and educate people about the public health care

1.2.2.2 HD in terms of intellect

President Ho Chi Minh and our Party have always paid attention to the development of education and training in order to build up the whole human and physical development To develop education and training to build a human being with sufficient knowledge and professional capacity to make each person master of life a real subject in production labor and creativity human

The 2nd plenum of the VIII Congress clearly stated that "education and training must be considered the top national policy", aiming to raise people's knowledge, train human resources and foster talents for the country

To formulate and implement priority policies and supports for educational activities, especially in mountainous regions, ethnic minority areas, islands, areas meeting with exceptional difficulties, creating favorable conditions, Equality for all people involved in education, improving the intellectual level, training human resources, ensuring HD on the basis of socio-economic development

1.2.2.3 HD in terms of culture, spirit

In every revolutionary period, our Party defines culture as the foundation, the goal of society, the highest task of the revolution is to build a new culture, new people, that is advanced culture , strong national identity, the goal of building a new culture in order to "human beings develop comprehensively intellectual, moral, physical, creative capacity, citizenship"(1)

Addressing the relationship between economics and culture in economic and cultural development has a close relationship, as a prerequisite for development, when economic development, in itself, contains cultural factors, in turn, develop the culture again, become the engine for economic development, no pure economy outside the culture and vice versa have no culture outside the economy

1.3 HD Viewpoints of the United Nations Development Program (UNDP)

1.3.1 Man is the center, HD is the ultimate goal of economic and social development, towards HD comprehensive, sustainable

renovation 1986-2006, National Political Publishing House, Hanoi, p.79

1 The Communist Party of Vietnam (2016), Document of National Congress XII, National Political Publishing House, Hanoi, p.127

Property, the real asset of the nation is human, not material goods, economics, but rather, human beings are really the goal of all socio-economic development, every The factor of society is only as a vehicle for HD and HD as the highest measure

to assess the superiority of the policy, as well as the effectiveness of economic and social programs

Man is the decisive factor of HD, that is, HD is due to HD

HD needs to be comprehensive, paying attention to all classes of people, regardless of race, class, religion, sex Towards creating equality of opportunity for everyone, and at the same time concerned about the distribution of elements that ensure equality for groups in society In its comprehensiveness encompasses sustainability, which means that current development must be the basis of future development, maintained and enhanced from one generation to the next

1.3.2 HD is the expansion of opportunity and opportunity selection for human opportunities

In the view of UNDP, HD is creating an environment in which people can develop their full potential and live a happy life in accordance with their needs and well-being The fundamental opportunity of human selection is to increase the capacity of human choice

HD is the process of expanding the opportunities for people to improve their quality of life in a sustainable way, in order to "enhance the choice" of human beings

to ensure their needs The minimum demand and the need for expansion: The minimum need is the need for food, accommodation, travel, schooling, sports to form health, Work skills, knowledge, culture These are the basic abilities, the foundation for the formation of other higher abilities

Expanding the opportunities for human selection, that is, extending the social conditions and environment so that people participate in social activities in a free and equal way regardless of gender, ethnicity, religious for each person to express, promote and enhance their capacity

Equality is the basic principle for HD, although attention to empowering all people will help people to participate in society for self-reliance It is difficult to ensure sustainability and efficiency in HD

1.3.3 The HDI toolkit and additional tools are a quantitative measure of HD

1.3.3.1 HDI Toolkit

UNDP uses the three basic indicators of life expectancy, education and living standards to develop an index of HD, or the HD Index (HDI) HDI is the average of three indicators: the standard of living, measured by the actual GDP per capita of purchasing power parity (PPP); Longevity, measured by the average life expectancy

of the community; Educational levels, adult literacy rates and primary, secondary and tertiary enrollment rates

HDI not only reflects the state and progress in HD, but also the basis for the party and state to select and set goals and policies for economic and social development

1.3.3.2 Additional sets of tools for HD assessment

The HDI details such as: GEM - Gender measurement of power; GDI - Gender Development Index; HPI - Poverty Index, MPI - Multidimensional Poverty Index, Human Poverty Index (HPI) as a complement to the HD level in countries

In short, human beings and HD have always been of interest throughout the course of history, especially in today's world where man is not only the product of history but also the creator of history that although in every period of human examination and development people are approached at different angles, human beings are always at the center of society, the goal of development Based on the inheritance of the Marxist-Leninist view of President Ho Chi Minh, of the Communist Party of Vietnam, of the United Nations Development Program on HD,

in this thesis we focus This is the basis for the research and development of people in Vinh Phuc province in the current period

1.4 Criteria for HD assessment in Vinh Phuc

Based on the inheritance of Marxist-Leninist philosophy, the use of the views of President Ho Chi Minh, the Communist Party of Vietnam on HD and the UNDP's

HD theory on research and development people in Vinh Phuc Province, we develop the following specific criteria:

1.4.1 HD in Vinh Phuc in terms of economy and income

Evaluation of HD on the social side, income is the first factor reflecting the standard of living of people, is the condition to maintain life, is the condition to improve the material and spiritual life of On that basis, each person has physical conditions to participate in medical, educational, cultural and spiritual activities in order to improve his / her health and skills as well as his / her knowledge myself The income level in HD is assessed in the income index, at the level of regular income that meets the essential needs and development of the person, expressed at the annual growth rate, calculated Income stabilization in economic sectors in the economic structure of the region Today, in the assessment of HD, the United Nations Development Program is one of the measures to measure the progress of economic structural change in ensuring the income target for workers , to regulate economic development for HD

1.4.2 HD in Vinh Phuc province through the correlation between the component indices of the HDI toolkit

For the Party and the authorities of Vinh Phuc province, HD is in fact always linked to economic and social conditions and to the activities of the communities themselves HD is always thoroughly understood as the center, the target and the driving force of all economic and social activities

Accordingly, HD is a dominant, regulated and decisive factor; The economic, social, educational, health and other factors are just conditions, the basis, the premise for HD In theory, the level of HD is the highest measure of qualitative and quantitative to evaluate these values "The purpose of development is to create a favorable environment that allows people to enjoy life long, healthy and creative" [112, p.148], HD is not the means but the The goal of HD is to determine both the

"input" and the "output" of the HD process, which is often considered external

expanding the opportunities for selection) and the internal dimension (1capacity building for human opportunities), the program's HDI toolkit measures the progress made by each country and all humanity in HD When researching HD in the province of the country, specifically in the thesis on HD research in the province of Vinh Phuc, the use of HD theory of UNDP is very necessary It is necessary to quantify the specific criteria for HD and in particular to evaluate the progress and constraints so as to work out appropriate solutions for socio-economic development

in order to achieve the right orientation HD

The HDI of the UNDP is a quantitative measure of the level of HD that is widely used in the world and in Vietnam, the HDI is measured by the mean of the three indices: income, health indicators and educational indicators, the use of the HDI toolkit ensures the universality of HD assessment beyond regional and national domain variations We measure tools to measure and compare progress made by the community at the HD goal At the same time, it is also a tool for assessing the correlation between income and education and health to assess whether economic development has been for HD or not Apply to assess the level of HD in the province

in the annual report

1.4.3 HD in Vinh Phuc through poverty alleviation

Hunger and poverty have always been of interest to many countries, including the developed world, in today's era, the shift in the economic structure of the nation, the growing rich and poor The economic crisis is likely to push a large proportion of workers into unemployment, debt So the UN has put the issue of hunger eradication, poverty is the most important goal in The eight Millennium Development Goals (MDGs), if we ignore this criterion, leave us with a class of people who are suffering the consequences of unbalanced development today The issue of hunger and poverty is measured by the proportion of people, poor households, near poor households in terms of income; In addition, the current situation of "multi-dimensional poverty" now occurs not only in rural and mountainous areas, but also in urban areas is a painful problem, so it is necessary to stick to these new criteria Evaluate the hidden corners of HD while GDP is increasing

1.4.4 The HD in Vinh Phuc is physically, intellectually and culturally and spiritually

Physical development of people is shown by the average life expectancy of people, the health status of people, the number of people receiving medical services (especially children, high This is reflected in the level of health development in terms

of quantity, quality, and community health that ensure that people have access to improved health services

The HD in Vinh Phuc is judged by the proportion of people in the school age, the number of skilled workers trained and regularly trained, and expressed by expanding the scale and improving the quality of education to meet the need to improve knowledge for the people

The HD in Vinh Phuc is culturally and spiritually involved in the cultural activities expressed through traditional festivals, in preserving and preserving cultural
