Sen, Amartya Kumar. 1999. Development as Freedom (NY: Knopf) does an excellent
job of showing the weak link between growth an development. I described his
graph in an earlier post -- showing that growth of life expectancy was
negatively related to growth. As Galbraith noted, the tearing down of the
social infrastructure is crucial. According to Sen, that destruction is
positively related to growth.
