In my contribution, I will moreover refer to Sen’s articles “Capability and Well-Being” and “How Does Culture Matter?”. Sen’s works that I am going to take into account for my exposition are, for instance, “On Economic Inequality”, “Poverty and Famines: An Essay on Entitlement and Deprivation”, “Commodities and Capabilities”, “On Ethics & Economics”, “The Standard of Living”, “Inequality reexamined”, “Development as Freedom”, “Identity and Violence: The Illusion of Destiny”, and “The Idea of Justice” furthermore, I am going to analyze some elements from Sen’s “Hunger and Public Action”, which Sen has written together with Jean Drèze. Criteria such as degree of freedom, culture, education ought to be taken into consideration too. My aim is to show on the basis of Sen’s meditation that criteria such as measurement of Gross National Product and of individual income cannot be the only criteria used in order to ascertain the degree of development possessed by countries and by individuals. Jindal Global University, Sonipat (Delhi NCR), 23rd-24th January, 2018 Abstract In my contribution regarding aspects of Amartya Sen’s philosophy I would like to deal with Sen’s interpretations of the relationships between justice, freedom, capability and entitlements.
