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.
In Development as Freedom Amartya Sen explains how in a world of unprecedented increase in overall opulence millions of people living in the Third World are still unfree. Even if they are not technically slaves, they are denied elementary freedoms and remain imprisoned in one way or another by economic poverty, social deprivation, political tyranny or cultural authoritarianism. The main purpose of development is to spread freedom and its 'thousand charms' to the unfree citizens. Freedom, Sen persuasively argues, is at once the ultimate goal of social and economic arrangements and the most efficient means of realizing general welfare. Social institutions like markets, political parties, legislatures, the judiciary, and the media contribute to development by enhancing individual freedom and are in turn sustained by social values. Values, institutions, development, and freedom are all closely interrelated, and Sen links them together in an elegant analytical framework. By asking 'What is the relation between our collective economic wealth and our individual ability to live as we would like?' and by incorporating individual freedom as a social commitment into his analysis Sen allows economics once again, as it did in the time of Adam Smith, to address the social basis of individual well-being and freedom.

评分搁下这本书,先说让我印象最深而最不重要的两点,一是翻译的不符合中文习惯,佶屈聱牙,感觉在读英文复合长句一口气不喘。二是非常想读哈耶克,作者在书中频频提及,批判性的引用勾起我极大兴趣。 在这本书里,我少有地看到了一位经济学家的人文关怀精神,这说明了理性客观的社...
评分 评分第10章 文化与人权 10.1三种批评 对于支撑人权言论的整个概念结构一般有三个相当不同的考虑因素,包括“正当性批评”、“逻辑连贯性批评”和“文化性批评”。 10.2正当性批评 此类批评的共同点是坚持必须把权利看作是“后于”体制的工具,而不是一种“先定”的伦理利益。综...
评分很久以前看过这本书,囫囵吞枣,根本没抓到要点。近来想把自己读过的书再重新过一遍,随后一捻,就是MR.SEN。 但还没翻完第一章就不想继续了,回到目录页,挑着读了几节还感兴趣的主题,这本书就该放下了吧。 要说这本书的干货,其实就是SEN的几个观点。 1、自由是发展的目...
吐槽他是我和黄黄的日常乐趣之一,跳出经济学的分析框架扯上社会发展也是充分体现印度人的人精性格了。得个和平奖还说得过去,居然拿了经济学奖,我是真的给这群圣母跪了。
