Book excerpt: Essay from the year 2010 in the subject Politics - Topic: Development Politics, Liverpool John Moores University, course: Development, language: English, abstract: Development is a concept, which can be viewed from different angles. Whether it is related with economic development or political, it generally refers to growth. Therefore, development is a key to the progress and stability of a country as well as its people. Finally, while economic growth is an important indicator, it should be used in combination with other indicators because growth is much more than economic development.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Human Development in an Unequal World deals with the twenty-first-century challenges of unstable economic growth and sustainability and the re-emergence of deprivations and inequalities in multiple realms. It argues that the broader perspective of human development is most suited in reorienting development towards a more equitable, sustainable, and empowering world. The authors discuss the concept and philosophy of the capabilities and human development approach, its measurement, the links between economic growth and human development, and the role of social sector policy, gender equality, and securing sustainability. In doing so, they analyse frameworks, processes, institutions, and actors, and weave together concepts, methods, and evidence from numerous developing countries. The chapters offer an integrated understanding of the importance of capabilities, freedoms, and human flourishing in the process of development. This volume calls for an approach that focuses on the humanness of development and brings people back to the centre stage—a phenomenon that has receded to the background in the neoliberal era.
