Description:
This book is a collection of six lectures and two reports by Dr. Kapila Vatsyayan presented at UNESCO seminars, offering a deep analysis of human development in India and other developing nations. The discussions are centered around UNDP’s "Human Development Report 1990", critiquing Western paradigms of development and advocating for a more inclusive approach that integrates culture, arts, and oral wisdom.
Key highlights include:
- A new perspective on development tailored to developing nations.
- The role of cultural heritage and traditional wisdom in shaping development policies.
- Observations and recommendations for defining and measuring human development beyond economic indicators.
- A historical insight into Delhi and its cultural evolution.
- Dr. Vatsyayan’s sixty-year-long engagement with UNESCO and its impact on global developmental discourse.
This book is an essential read for policy-makers, scholars, and researchers interested in development studies, cultural heritage, and human progress in the context of non-Western nations.
