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.

评分通过此书,我改变了许多关其中于经济学死板的想法。其中最深刻的当属经济发展与自由民主之间的关系。 当初新加坡高速发展时,确实是摈弃了民主,由“国父”李光耀一人“力挽狂澜”,将新加坡带上了发展的高速列车,这也一直被视为中国发展中应该效仿的典范。但是作者...

评分2013-9-8在哈佛书店COOP的Faculty 书架上读到这本书,其中一个章节谈到英国的人均寿命在两次世界大战之间,意外地得到飞速提升,两次战争的十年中人均预期寿命提升了大约7岁。这真是一个有意思的现象。解放后,中国人的人均寿命也得到飞速提升,需要寻找类似的数据和研究。
