Measuring development

Studying development is about measuring how developed one country is compared to other countries, or to the same country in the past. Development measures how economically, socially, culturally or technologically advanced a country is.

The two most important ways of measuring development are economic development and human development.

Economic development is a measure of a country's wealth and how it is generated (for example agriculture is considered less economically advanced then banking).
