Download or read book Beyond GDP written by Marc Fleurbaey and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2013-04-11 with total page 395 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In spite of recurrent criticism and an impressive production of alternative indicators by scholars and NGOs, GDP remains the central indicator of countries' success. This book revisits the foundations of indicators of social welfare, and critically examines the four main alternatives to GDP that have been proposed: composite indicators, subjective well-being indexes, capabilities (the underlying philosophy of the Human Development Index), and equivalent incomes. Its provocative thesis is that the problem with GDP is not that it uses a monetary metric but that it focuses on a narrow set of aspects of individual lives. It is actually possible to build an alternative, more comprehensive, monetary indicator that takes income as its first benchmark and adds or subtracts corrections that represent the benefit or cost of non-market aspects of individual lives. Such a measure can respect the values and preferences of the people and give as much weight as they do to the non-market dimensions. A further provocative idea is that, in contrast, most of the currently available alternative indicators, including subjective well-being indexes, are not as respectful of people's values because, like GDP, they are too narrow and give specific weights to the various dimensions of life in a more uniform way, without taking account of the diversity of views on life in the population. The popular attraction that such alternative indicators derive from being non-monetary is therefore based on equivocation. Moreover, it is argued in this book that "greening" GDP and relative indicators is not the proper way to incorporate sustainability concerns. Sustainability involves predicting possible future paths, therefore different indicators than those assessing the current situation. While various indicators have been popular (adjusted net savings, ecological footprint), none of them involves the necessary forecasting effort that a proper evaluation of possible futures requires.

Book Synopsis Efficiency and Equity in Welfare Economics by : Pier Carlo Nicola
Download or read book Efficiency and Equity in Welfare Economics written by Pier Carlo Nicola and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-08-31 with total page 163 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Increasing efficiency in generating national income and improving equity in its distribution among economic agents is at the forefront of priorities of most modern economies. This book presents a model which aims to maximize a symmetrical welfare function under certain constraints which consider both efficiency and equity, i.e. taxes and subsidies, implemented by a public authority. The model is numerically implemented and considers a set of economic agents with starting incomes that satisfy Pareto income law under various values of the alpha parameter. Also, the model implementations respect the social production function. Various experiments are presented which show how income inequality (measured by means of the Lorenz curve and, what I call, the Lorenz-Gini inequality index) and measures of poverty are sensibly reduced by redistributing national income without lowering efficiency in production. A case study, or application, of Italian personal income in 2008 is also presented.

Book Synopsis Family Productivity, Labor Supply, and Welfare in a Low-income Country by : John L. Newman
Download or read book Family Productivity, Labor Supply, and Welfare in a Low-income Country written by John L. Newman and published by . This book was released on 1995 with total page 1026 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper develops an analytical approach to estimating family labor supply and consumption decisions appropriate for developing countries. The model identifies structural relationships allowing analysis of the welfare implications of intrahousehold allocation decisions, especially across the generations. The approach allows for an arbitrary number of family members, each of whom may or may not engage in multiple activities. The authors identify the marginal returns to work in self-employment without directly observing the marginal returns or estimating the enterprise's production function. The key feature of the approach is to work with underlying structural marginal return and marginal rate of substitution functions together with first order Kuhn-Tucker conditions. The authors use this model to analyze family consumption and labor supply decisions of rural landholding households in Peru.
