In the second part is shown the methodology of work and data is explained which are used for research and analysis. It is about a large anonymous survey on the sample of 951 respondents, conducted as a part

From the mentioned hypothesis, if the same is positive, may be produced the hypothesis
that systematically raising the awareness of population about the importance of family, marriage, religious principles and personal training and lifelong education is of crucial importance for the improvement and balancing of the values of population system and achieving the high moral principles of society, and for achieving this objective, strategic management of human resources at the macro level and long – term and systematic development of human capital must be based on raising the level of moral and intellectual capital of every individual.
