Trade paperback. Expanded ed. Trade paperback (US). Glued binding. 324 p. Oxford India Paperbacks. Audience: General/trade. This work explores a new development paradigm whose central focus is on human well-being. Increase in income is treated as an essential means, but not as the end of development, and certainly not as the sum of human life. Development policies and strategies are discussed which link economic growth with human lives in various societies. The book also analyzes the evolution of a new Human Development Index which is a far more comprehensive measure of socio-economic progress of nations than the traditional measure of Gross National Product. For the first time, a Political Freedom Index is also presented. Very good. Light shelfwear, No ownership marks. N° de réf. du vendeur Alibris.0018938
