摘　　要：亚当·斯密将人的生产技巧、劳动熟练程度等看作为资本,实际上论述了人力资本理论的诸多内容。他还从人的基本素养方面阐释了人力资本的内涵。他认为充分的市场竞争是保证人力资本投资正当回报的前提条件,人力资本投资的回报形式也是多样的。而且,在某些政策和环境条件下,既定的人力资本水平会出现下降的现象。斯密的相关论述对于我们今天仍具有较强的启示意义。Adam Smith regarded human skills and the improved dexterity of a workman as human capital;in fact,he formulated the basis of the science of human capital.Smith also explained the meaning of human capital from the perspective of education.Smith thought that the perfectly competitive market is the prereq-uisite to ensure the proper return on investment in human capital.And the form of return on investment in human capital can be diverse.Furthermore,given human capital has a declining tendency under certain poli-cies and environmental conditions.Therefore,the related statements of Adam Smith are still enlightening to us in the modern world.
