Analizando el PIB a la luz de la Teoría de las Capacidades de Martha Nussbaum - [Analysing GDP in the light of Martha Nussbaum's Capabilities Theory]

- It is difficult to measure economic progress. In spite of its great predominance, the GDP constitutes an insufficient well-being measure, because economic progress does not guarantee the improvement of human development. Among the many alternatives proposed, it is worth to highlight the “Theory of Capabilities” by Martha Nussbaum (Prince of Asturias Award for Social Sciences, 2012). This article explains how this theory has been applied in an innovation teaching project of the subject “Principles of Economy” in the “Grade of Political Science and Public Management”. The aim is that students relate economics and economic growth to social justice, sustainability and equality.
