THE ROLE OF HUMAN CAPITAL FOR ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT IN A DIGITALIZED WORLD
Abstract:
The article is aimed at studying the features of the relationship between economic development, human capital and information and communication technologies. The panel sample includes data for 87 countries for 2019. The study uses the World Bank approach to classify countries to groups by income levels. The relationships between the analysed indicators are determined by groups based on the calculation of correlation coefficients. In addition, the paper presents a detailed spatial and graphical analysis of the indicators distribution by groups. The research shows that there are differences between the groups, both in the strength of the relationship and in the distribution of human capital development, digital technologies and GDP per capita. The article also analyses the relationship between GDP and the components of human capital and digital development. The study confirms the heterogeneity of economic development across countries and regions, highlighting differences across groups of countries depending on income levels.

OF THE COUNTRIES WITH THE USE
OF CLUSTER ANALYSIS TOOLS
Abstract:
The article examines the features of the application of cluster analysis to assess the level of greening the economies of the countries of the world. A sample of indicators on which the economy of developed countries is based, in particular, the standard of living in the country, anthropogenic load, energy intensity of the economy, has been carried out. Taking into account these indicators, the countries of the world we¬re clustered into three main groups and the fourth is presented as general (background) data. The features of the greening of the economies of the countries of each group are characterized, the similarities and differences are determined. A hypothesis is put forward about the relationship between the level of economic development and anthropogenic load in states.

FACTORS DETERMINING THE DOMINANT ROLE OF THE SERVICES SECTOR IN MODERN ECONOMIES
Abstract:
In the 19th and the beginning of the 20th century, the process of industrialisation was particularly large-scale and intensive and dominated the industrial sector. In the following years, however, complex processes of adaptation to a new model of development began to take place in the development of the Bulgarian economy. It is based on the global information revolution and the trend towards globalisation, as well as the transition to a market economy. One of the features of this change is the dynamic development of the services sector, which is increasingly beginning to dominate. This paper traces the factors that led to the transformation of most economies, including the Bulgarian and their transformation into post-industrial, as well as the similarities and differences of these changes until the beginning of the twentieth century in our country and in other economies.
