Sen's Capability Approach : A Critical Appraisal [HC54. S528 2008 f rb].

Abstract

Kertas ini memperdebatkan bahawa pendekatan kebolehan Sen boleh diperkukuhkan jikalau elemen institusi ditambahkan secara eksplisit. Pendekatan kebolehan Sen telah mengiktiraf peranan institusi dalam menghadkan kebolehan individu, tetapi ianya dibuat secara sekali imbas. This thesis argues that Sen’s capability approach can be strengthened by explicitly incorporating institutions. Sen’s capability approach acknowledges the role of institutions in limiting the capabilities of individuals, but does not provide more than a passing mention of institutions.
