世界银行估计,调整后的净(或真实)储蓄(ANS)是可持续发展的宏观指标。ANS通过增加人力资本积累和扣除自然资源损失来扩展传统的净储蓄。本文将ANS作为可持续发展的指标进行检验。它考察了ANS是否解释了福利方面的变化。福利由婴儿死亡率(IMR)和人类发展指数(HDI)衡量。这项研究是在选定的36个发展中国家和发达国家进行的,涵盖1971-2000年期间。结果表明,调整后的净储蓄与总福利之间存在显著的正相关关系,但幅度较小。(C)2008爱思唯尔B.V.保留所有权利。
The World Bank has estimated Adjusted net (or genuine) saving (ANS) as a macro level index of sustainable development. ANS extends the conventional net saving by adding human capital accumulation and deducting natural resources losses. This paper tests ANSas an index of sustainable development. it examines whether ANS explains changes in welfare. Welfare is measured by Infant mortality rate (IMR) and Human Development index (HDI). The study was conducted in 36 selected developing and developed countries and covers the period 1971-2000. The results suggest a positive and significant relationship between Adjusted net saving and aggregate welfare but weak in magnitude. (C) 2008 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
