Reflections on human development : how the focus of development economics shifted from national income accounting to people-centred policies, told by one of the chief architects of the new paradigm

This book is based on several talks and papers presented by the author in recent years. It is organized in two parts, the first dealing with an emerging development paradigm, and the second with the imperative for a new international dialogue in topics central to human development such as a peace agenda for the Third World.
