AbstractThis chapter details human development strategies to be implemented in the 1990s. Any development strategy for the 1990s will combine a number of objectives: among them, accelerating economic growth, reducing absolute poverty and preventing further deterioration in the physical environment. The departure from earlier development strategies lies in clustering all these objectives around the central goal of enlarging human choices.
