Human development index (HDI) is a composite statistic of life expectancy, education, and per capita income indicators, which are used to rank countries into four tiers of human development. The HDI was developed by Pakistani economist Mahbub ul Haq, is anchored in the Nobel laureate Amartya Sen’s work on human capabilities, often framed in terms of whether people are able to "be" and "do" desirable things in their life, and was published by the United Nations Development Programme.

“Institutions are the “rules of the game” in society or, more formally, are the humanly devised constraints that shape human interaction. In consequence they structure incentives in human exchange, whether political, social, or economic. . . .”
D. North.
"The countries of the" third world "- according to D. North – are poor because the institutional constraints define a system of rewards for political (or economic) activities that do not encourage productive activity."
“There is no country condemned to live in poverty; for any society is possible to create such institutional environment that will ensure the long term economic growth“.
D. North.
