The State of Society – Measuring Economic Success and Human Well-Being

Urban Institute: The State of Society – Measuring Economic Success and Human Well-Being, Erwin de Leon, Elizabeth T. Boris

  • “This study provides an overview of a broad range of existing measures that go beyond gross domestic product (GDP) to offer a more complete and accurate picture of how a society and its economy are faring. Based on a review of the literature and an analysis of major arguments and rationales for moving beyond GDP as a measure of national well-being, this report identifies 14 categories of national well-being. It synthesizes hundreds of indicators found in 28 reports that present alternative indices and systems of well-being into 79 indicators organized under these categories.”
