| Resumen : | This paper is based on a transformed concept of
development: from a concept of development that is
single-dimensional, concrete, and mainly quantitative,
into one that is multidimensional. We focus on the
components of development, the measurement of which
includes qualitative observations of its effect on final
beneficiaries. Because a useful understanding of
development policies requires an evaluation of all the
different metrics that emerge, we evaluate the
development indices of 19 Latin American countries. The
most recent theoretical perspectives link development to
both liberal philosophy - focusing on the many
dimensions of human society and the fundamental rights
of the individual - and utilitarianism - emphasizing an
evaluation of the success of various development policies
and the usefulness of their outcomes. |
