Amartya Sen is the Master of Trinity College, Cambridge, and the winner of the 1998 Nobel Prize in Economic Science. He has been President of the Indian Economic Association, the American Economic Association, the International Economic Association and the Econometric Society. He has taught at Calcutta, Delhi, Oxford, Cambridge, the London School of Economics, and Harvard.
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.

评分阿马蒂亚·森在《以自由看待发展》一书中提出一种特别的发展观,即:自由是发展的首要目的和不可缺少的重要手段,因而对自由这一内涵丰富且饱受争议的概念提供了一种新的理解:“(自由)应该是一个人选择有理由珍视的生活的实质自由——即可行能力。”[1]森提出的发展观是否能...
评分第4章 以可行能力剥夺看待的贫困 4.1收入贫困与可行能力贫困 可行能力的提高与收入增长存在正向关联,可行能力的改善既能以直接的、又能以间接的方式减少剥夺。 4.2何种意义上的不平等? 关于平等的历史思考,已建立了斯密的“不偏不倚的旁观者”、罗尔斯的“初始状态...

评分在《以自由看待发展》中,森从伦理学、经济学等诸多视角,对整个世界人们的生活状况,尤其是发展中国家人们面临的贫穷、卫生、教育、粮食等等问题表达了关切,和非常严谨的分析。 森认为,传统的按GNP(或者人均或者总量或者GDP,whatever)衡量福利的做法不够全面和严谨。他...
- conclusion is valuable: freedom is the means and the ends of economic development. - poorly written, so unreadable.
评分好难读。。。。。。。。
评分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?
评分以自由看待发展并不是自由主义的宣言。这书在西方自有它对话的语境,可惜跑到中国以后只剩下一句“民主是一种普世价值”了。叹。
评分作者带着对大众自觉、政治权谋、公共讨论等等的美好假想,把伦理和经济揉在一起 -_-!! 这书在发展研究的崇高学术地位。。果真是源自政治需要么; freedom as the main end of development <-- capability approach; mujun的评论值得看http://book.douban.com/review/1514284/
