What do we mean by development? How can citizens, governments, and the international community foster development?The process by which nations escape poverty and achieve economic and social progress has been the subject of extensive examination for hundreds of years. The notion of development itself has evolved from an original preoccupation with incomes and economic growth to a much broader understanding of development.In this Very Short Introduction Ian Goldin considers the contributions that education, health, gender, equity, and other dimensions of human wellbeing make to development, and discusses why it is also necessary to include the role of institutions and the rule of law as well as sustainability and environmental concerns.ABOUT THE SERIES: The Very Short Introductions series from Oxford University Press contains hundreds of titles in almost every subject area. These pocketsized books are the perfect way to get ahead in a new subject quickly. Our expert authors combine facts, analysis, perspective, new ideas, and enthusiasm to make interesting and challenging topics highly readable.
