Klappentext The Human Development Report has had a profound impact on development policies around the world. The 2010 Report continues the tradition of pushing the frontiers of development thinking. For the first time since 1990, the Report looks back rigorously at the past several decades and identifies often surprising trends and patterns with important lessons for the future. These varied pathways to human development show that there is no single formula for sustainable progress—and that impressive long-term gains can and have been achieved even without consistent economic growth. Looking beyond 2010, this Report surveys critical aspects of human development, from political freedoms and empowerment to sustainability and human security, and outlines a broader agenda for research and policies to respond to these challenges. Zusammenfassung The 20th Anniversary edition is a time to take stock! reflect and move forward. It rigorously reviews the past two decades of human development trends and challenges! and provides newly available data and supplementary indices weighing the effect of income inequalities! gender disparities and household-level poverty.
