具体描述
By the winner of the 1988 Nobel Prize in Economics, an essential and paradigm-altering framework for understanding economic development--for both rich and poor--in the twenty-first century.
Freedom, Sen argues, is both the end and most efficient means of sustaining economic life and the key to securing the general welfare of the world's entire population. Releasing the idea of individual freedom from association with any particular historical, intellectual, political, or religious tradition, Sen clearly demonstrates its current applicability and possibilities. In the new global economy, where, despite unprecedented increases in overall opulence, the contemporary world denies elementary freedoms to vast numbers--perhaps even the majority of people--he concludes, it is still possible to practically and optimistically restain a sense of social accountability. Development as Freedom is essential reading.

##less critical than expected
评分##Freedoms are not only the primary ends of development, they are also among its principal means.
评分##还是旅途中的阅读速度最快
评分##Sen描绘了一个理想主义者的愿景，但对凡人来说却太过无力，毕竟众生皆苦，现代社会的发展史，就是普通人被物化、异化，成为少数精英阶级牺牲品的历史。
评分##自由既是发展的目的，又是发展的手段——Sen想要着力打破的是“自由是否能够促进发展”的因果讨论，从而将对“发展”的讨论焦点和评价尺度从“产出与绩效”转变为“freedom和capabilities的提升”。很明显Sen的言说对象是各类政策制定者，他指出民主、市场、教育医疗等一系列的机制安排都同时是提升人们freedom和capabilities的目的和手段，不可偏废整体中的任何一个，力图统合诸般原则和价值——在这一点上，他做的很成功，也开启了有意义的视角。 然而，这本书非常缺乏现实感，从不考虑在资源稀缺的情况下这种统合性的价值如何同时实现；经验材料和机制分析也比较粗疏，很多地方并不能对他的论点构成严谨的支撑。
评分##很好的一本书，读完之后对于政治学、经济学、公共政策、还有政治哲学，都有很大的帮助！
评分##现在想想这本书的地位可能是与政治发展联系的
评分##准备aw的时候觉得这本书很多地方分析的非常缜密，尤其是关于unintended consequences那一部分。关于改革开放和三年自然灾害的分析也挺值得一看的
评分##喜欢严谨的论述
