Synopsis of Development as Freedom

En 'Desarrollo y Libertad', Amartya Sen explica cómo, en un mundo de opulencia sin precedentes, millones de personas que viven en el Tercer Mundo aún no son libres. Incluso si no son técnicamente esclavos, se les niegan las libertades elementales y permanecen encarcelados de una forma u otra por la pobreza económica, la privación social, la tiranía política o el autoritarismo cultural. El propósito principal del desarrollo es difundir la libertad y sus 'mil encantos' a los ciudadanos no libres. Sen argumenta persuasivamente que la libertad es a la vez el objetivo último de los arreglos sociales y económicos y el medio más eficiente para lograr el bienestar general. Las instituciones sociales como los mercados, los partidos políticos, las legislaturas, el poder judicial y los medios de comunicación contribuyen al desarrollo al mejorar la libertad individual y, a su vez, se sustentan en los valores sociales. Los valores, las instituciones, el desarrollo y la libertad están estrechamente interrelacionados, y Sen los vincula en un elegante marco analítico.
