Summary/Abstract: The above publication presents a comparative analysis of the human capital in the southern voivodships against other voivodships basing on selected diagnostic indexes characterizing the five basic fields of human capital, i.e.: education, labour market, health, demographic potential and social and territorial cohesion. The above mentioned areas have been described by selected indexes calculated for years 2003 and 2006 on the basis of data gathered by the deparment of public statistics. In order to define a synthetic position of a particular voivodship against other units, and to indicate strengths and weaknesses of a unit, basing on the conception of Human Development Index (HDI), the taxonomic measures of development have been used, i.e. general human capital measure and measures for each individual research field.
