内容简介
 · · · · · ·

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.

GDS课的梦靥

less critical than expected

森博士论述自由的经典书目,可是到目前为止那么多国家(特别是撒哈拉以南国家)的发展似乎都在证明以‘发展途径的自由’为中心的发展并没有带来自由,那么在缺乏‘两个基本点’前提下的这个中心价值何在?

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
