This study discusses the inadequacy of GDP alone as a measure of welfare in the global economic age and examines alternative welfare indicators and measurement methods. This study, which discusses the human development index (HDI), the inequality adjusted human development index (I-HDI), the gender inequality index (GII), the multidimensional poverty index (MPI), the social progress index (SPI), the happy planet index (HPI), the better life index (BLI), the Legatum prosperity index(LPI), the human capital index (HCI), and the ecological footprint (EF) methods, shares the country rankings of these methods and reveals the differences in the results depending on the method. It also draws attention to the differences between the economic size and welfare level by sharing the rankings of the world's 10 largest economies in alternative methods. In addition, the study examines the obstacles to the inability to establish a complete, precise, and generally accepted method of measuring welfare.

The Impact

The article considers the impact of human development on changes and transformations in economics and on the general development of the state for the countries of the European Union and Ukraine in the period from 1990 to 2018, as well as ways of its modeling using statistical and econometric methods. The analysis of the factors influencing the development of human capital made it possible to draw a conclusion about the direct dependence of changes in the economic and social spheres and the level of quality of life of the population. Innovative universities, namely University 4.0, also in turn play a significant role in shaping the new modern knowledge economy and the development of the state as a whole, influencing society through cognitive technologies. To determine the results, time series models and multiple and panel regression models were developed based on the data of the Human Development Index and other socio-economic indicators that determine the financial stability of the state and the level of its security and welfare. The obtained models were tested for adequacy, significance of coefficients, stability and possibility of their use in practice in order to determine the most optimal of them. After conducting the necessary tests and calculating the error of RMSPE, the best of all constructed and analyzed models was the Holt-Winters model. It is universal and can be used to further forecast the economic, social and demographic indicators of other regions of the world with possible adjustments of the main parameters and coefficients to obtain the most accurate results and use this model in practice. The study concluded with an analysis of the main areas of reform and recovery of the Ukrainian economy and the spheres of education and health care to achieve social progress in the country and increase its level of development.

The present study examines the regional disparities in social development in India by using social development index (SDI). The study used census-based data of 2011 including 28 states and seven union territories (UTs) of India. The study ends by ranking of states and UTs on the basis of development index consisting of 12 social indicators. This article also compares selected states on the basis of human development index (1981, 1991 and 2001) and SDI (2011) values. In addition, the study finds district-level SDI and ranks the districts of selected states, that is, Kerala, Haryana and Bihar. The findings of the study confirmed the northern–southern social development divide in India. The empirical findings show that Kerala is the best state among all states in India in terms of social progress. Results of the study confirmed huge disparities at district and states/UTs level in India.

Environmental degradation is a primary indicator in reducing sustainability and causing many of the challenges faced by humankind, such as climate change, water scarcity, inequality, and hunger. One way to resolve the sustainable issue (environmental degradation) is to promote sustainable development through a commitment to social progress, environmental balance, and economic growth. In conjunction with the present issue, this study aims to analyse the nexus of human development index, economic and population growth on environmental degradation in South Aceh District, Aceh Province, Indonesia. This quantitative study uses secondary data that involved three main variables: environmental degradation, economic growth, and population growth. This study data were collected from the Central Bureau of Statistics, Aceh, Indonesia and related Regional Government Agency for 20 years started 1997 to 2017. This study found that the human development index and population growth positively and significantly affect environmental degradation. Also, economic growth has no significant impact on environmental degradation. In conclusion, this study identifies that when the human development index low and population growth high, it would increase environmental degradation. Surprisingly, whereas economic growth does not significantly contribute to environmental degradation, this study can provide an overview of the nexus of human development index, economic and population growth on environmental degradation and its impact on society.

The Relationship

The authors explore an alternative way of analyzing the relationship between human development and individualism. The method is based on the first principal component of Hofstede's individualism index in the Human Development Index rating domain. Results suggest that the general idea that greater wealth brings more individualism is only true for countries with high levels of development, while for middle or low levels of development the inverse is true.

Gender Inequality Index is a major indicator presenting level of development of the countries as Human Development Index, which is calculated regularly every year by UN. In this study, an alternative calculation has been proposed for measuring gender inequality index which is an important barrier for the human development. Each indicator in the index integrated as MAUT- AHP and also AHP-TOPSIS and these methods carried out again for the alternative ranking member and candidate countries of the European Union. The main objective here is to represent that the indicators form gender inequality index can be reclassified with different weights for each indicator.

The condition of the border areas in Indonesia is largely isolated, lagging, poor, and backward so as to require an affirmafive and innovative development policy. This study discusses the asymmetrical policy of Jokowi-JK government in the development of border areas in Indonesia. Most of the border areas are Underdeveloped Regions, so a symmetrical or special policy is required so that the development of border areas is not left behind with other regions or other countries. The implementation of the policy was carried out with the development of infrastructure and basic social services for the community as well as financial distribution, implementation of specific policies and arranging the formation of New Autonomous Region (DOB) in welfare-oriented border areas. This asymmetric policy encourages accelerated development in border areas so as to improve the human development index.
