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.
##Freedoms are not only the primary ends of development, they are also among its principal means.
評分##宏大敘事。。。
評分以自由看待發展並不是自由主義的宣言。這書在西方自有它對話的語境,可惜跑到中國以後隻剩下一句“民主是一種普世價值”瞭。嘆。
評分##作者帶著對大眾自覺、政治權謀、公共討論等等的美好假想,把倫理和經濟揉在一起 -_-!! 這書在發展研究的崇高學術地位。。果真是源自政治需要麼; freedom as the main end of development <-- capability approach; mujun的評論值得看http://book.douban.com/review/1514284/
