On compatibility of the social development indices

We discuss the question of compatibility of some indices used by the United Nations Development Program to determine the level of human development. Our goal is to restrict the range of arbitrariness in choosing quasi-arithmetic means to measure the development in different countries. As our main tool we use functional equations.

Abstract

We discuss the question of compatibility of some indices used by the United Nations Development Program to determine the level of human development. Our goal is to restrict the range of arbitrariness in choosing quasi-arithmetic means to measure the development in different countries. As our main tool we use functional equations.
