Abstract

The article considers the resource potential of Ukraine's recovery from the standpoint of biophilosophy, which means priority care for the living conditions of the population of Ukraine. Also, from the standpoint of the global application of the ideas of classical political economy and the philosophy of capital development, attention is paid to international support for Ukraine from international monetary and financial organizations, governments of foreign countries, and the maximum accumulation of internal resources. It is proven that from the point of view of the philosophy of labor, human resources are a key factor in the productivity and efficiency of the reconstruction economy and the main driver of the further innovative development of our country, therefore their recovery is a significant challenge and at the same time a task for the reconstruction of Ukraine. It is found that in conditions of war, the situation on the labor market remains contradictory, which causes unemployment due to the cessation of work of enterprises and a shortage of personnel in certain industries due to mobilization and migration. It is emphasized that from the standpoint of the theory of social systems, the tasks of a dual economic policy in the development of an effective policy are: the return of today's refugees, strengthening Ukraine's ties with the growing Ukrainian diaspora, stimulating the growth of the birth rate and implementing a balanced family and pro-natalist policy. It is emphasized that from the standpoint of physical economy, the main priorities of the post-war development of the Ukrainian labor market should be to increase the level and productivity of economic activity of the population. This requires not only an increase in the level of employment, a reduction in the period of unemployment, but also the modernization of the conditions and content of work, its digitalization, the democratization of managerial relations and the creation of conditions for the professional and personal development of employees.
