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.

评分很久以前看过这本书,囫囵吞枣,根本没抓到要点。近来想把自己读过的书再重新过一遍,随后一捻,就是MR.SEN。 但还没翻完第一章就不想继续了,回到目录页,挑着读了几节还感兴趣的主题,这本书就该放下了吧。 要说这本书的干货,其实就是SEN的几个观点。 1、自由是发展的目...
评分几年前看了这本书,非常赞赏。今天看Sunstein的Republic.com 2.0,里面提到阿玛蒂亚·森的著名论断:民主国家不会产生饥荒。这个论断也许很正确而且重要。然而,无论是森本人,还是许多读者,都容易据此作出一个推论:想解决贫困与饥荒,那就发展民主。Sunstein就是这样推...
评分mujun 发表于 2008-10-01 19:16:40 每个礼拜三的下午都累得要死要活。两点钟开始先上三个小时的development study,课堂讨论加两个教授同时讲课非常不合作地把你往不同的方向拉。然后一个guest talk,你要知道这个叫做guest talk,不叫lecture,再大牌的学者跑过来都很casual...
