GDP per capita has a strong influence on the HDI. 18 Jan 2008 R. Shanthini

It seems that GDP per capita plays only a marginal role in Human Development? 18 Jan 2008 R. Shanthini

But, GDP per capita growth is important for people to live comfortably! Is that true? 18 Jan 2008 R. Shanthini

Let us take a look at the GINI Index, which is a measure of unequal distribution of wealth Gini Index of zero means absolute equality Gini Index of 100 means absolute inequality 18 Jan 2008 R. Shanthini

The modified HDI is a good index? 18 Jan 2008 R. Shanthini No, it is not.

The biggest problem with HDI is how the indices are defined. Life Index = Life Expectancy Jan 2008 R. Shanthini Education Index = 2 Adult Literacy Enrollment
