The State of Society: Measuring Economic Success and Human Well-Being
de Leon, Erwin; Boris, Elizabeth T.
Urban Institute, June 2010, online edition, 94p (PDF)
"This report was commissioned by the Center for Partnership Studies (CPS) to explore progress toward national indicators that measure both human well-being and economic success. These two measurements are interconnected, particularly as society moves further into the postindustrial knowledge and information age where economic success heavily depends on investment in human capacity development."
Erwin de Leon is a policy researcher at the Urban Institute. Elizabeth T. Boris is founding director at the Center on Nonprofits and Philanthropy, The Urban Institute.
