This analysis, dated January 18, 2008, examines the relationship between GDP per capita, life expectancy, literacy rates, and school enrollment as determinants of the Human Development Index (HDI). It highlights that while GDP per capita has a significant influence on HDI, it does not solely determine a country's development status. The discussion also touches on income inequality measured by the Gini Index and questions the environmental responsibility of traditional GDP metrics. Insights from the Human Development Report 2007/2008 and the World Development Indicators are critically reviewed.

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

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