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.
##宏大敘事。。。
評分##less critical than expected
評分##可是更多的時候覺得他在迴避問題,例如提到自由是目標也是手段,提到自由是衡量發展的標準,可就是沒有正麵迴答當隻能二選一的時候也怎麼辦,而且也沒有在宏觀層麵的自由與微觀層麵的自由做齣明顯區分......可在講到 how much money can take us to immortality 的時候真覺得被戳中瞭....
評分##one of the assigned books from the class. i'm not convinced at all... but there may will be an equivocal way of answer or something i dont get like always
評分##自由既是發展的目的,又是發展的手段——Sen想要著力打破的是“自由是否能夠促進發展”的因果討論,從而將對“發展”的討論焦點和評價尺度從“産齣與績效”轉變為“freedom和capabilities的提升”。很明顯Sen的言說對象是各類政策製定者,他指齣民主、市場、教育醫療等一係列的機製安排都同時是提升人們freedom和capabilities的目的和手段,不可偏廢整體中的任何一個,力圖統閤諸般原則和價值——在這一點上,他做的很成功,也開啓瞭有意義的視角。 然而,這本書非常缺乏現實感,從不考慮在資源稀缺的情況下這種統閤性的價值如何同時實現;經驗材料和機製分析也比較粗疏,很多地方並不能對他的論點構成嚴謹的支撐。
評分##好難讀。。。。。。。。
評分##Sen描繪瞭一個理想主義者的願景,但對凡人來說卻太過無力,畢竟眾生皆苦,現代社會的發展史,就是普通人被物化、異化,成為少數精英階級犧牲品的曆史。
評分##GDS課的夢靨
評分##很好的一本書,讀完之後對於政治學、經濟學、公共政策、還有政治哲學,都有很大的幫助!
