Amartya Sen in Search of Impure Welfare Economics-Finding New Space

Vol. 33, Issue No. 45, 07 Nov, 1998

Welfare Economics Finding New Space Tapas Majumdar " Amartya Sen has succeeded in not only widening the universe of discourse of the economic science as we knew it almost beyond recognition, but also deepening it with the use of the disaggregated sub-concepts that he devised and that more closely corresponded to the surrounding reality.

prison, the very day after the judgment in fact, the Warangal police were knocking at the gates of the Central Prison, Visakha- patnam, with a production warrant to produce Rauf at a Court in Warangal and remand him to the Warangal prison, for he was wanted in yet another murder case as a conspirator.
