Development as Freedom (1999) by Nobel laureate Amartya Sen redefines development as the expansion of human freedoms rather than mere economic growth. Sen argues that true development involves removing various forms of "unfreedom"—such as poverty, lack of education, and political oppression—that restrict individuals' capabilities to lead lives they value. He identifies five interrelated types of freedoms: political freedoms, economic facilities, social opportunities, transparency guarantees, and protective security.
