N2  - This thesis will discuss human capital variables in relation to population ageing  and provide an empirical analysis of a theoretically informed classification system designed to reveal differences between the European countries in terms of how well they will be able to deal with population ageing problems. Results show that heterogeneity within the EU is pervasive with respect to what measures different member states will need to take in order to ensure future human capital development. However, it is clear that certain regional patterns emerge in the Baltic states, southern Europe and the Balkans. Based on the classification system, the EU would be well advised to actively invest in human capital development in these regions in order to avert future economic and service issues linked to population ageing.
