Human Development Economics: Fostering Prosperity, Equality, and Well-Being, a Guide to Human Development Economics

In the field of human development, studies of the human condition are conducted, with the capability approach serving as the central pillar. The United Nations employs the inequality adjusted Human Development Index as a method for determining the degree to which genuine progress has been made in the field of human development. In order to have a better knowledge of progress, it is an alternate strategy to a singular concentration on economic growth, with a greater emphasis on social accountability.
