国内生产总值（GDP）被广泛认为是衡量社会福祉的一个糟糕指标。本文考察了国内生产总值作为社会福利衡量指标的几种替代指标和修正指标。许多生态经济学家认可的可持续经济福利指数（Index of Sustainable Economic Welfare）被认为具有多种优点，但也存在一些缺陷。寻求社会福利措施的工作尚未结束。(C) 1998 Elsevier Science B.V.版权所有
Gross domestic product (GDP) is widely acknowledged to be a poor measure of social well-being. This paper surveys several substitutes for and modifications of GDP which have been offered as measures of society's welfare. The Index of Sustainable Economic Welfare, a measure endorsed by many ecological economists, is found to possess a variety of virtues - but also several imperfections. The search for a social welfare measure has not yet ended. (C) 1998 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.
