Introduction

NEW Development Collection: Human Development

FREE  selected papers from the Development online archive

Twenty years after the first publication of the UNDP Human Development report, the journal revisits the concept of human development. How can human development be revitalised to empower people to enact change? In 2010, Volume 53 of Development will return to those key themes raised by the founders of human development. The articles in this third Development Collection give the historical framework to the new volume's discussion.
