Although the legitimacy of using subjective information from surveys to measure human development has been questioned by the problem of adaptive preferences, rejecting it in principle to explain well-being is contradictory with the foundational premise of the human development paradigm, given his irreducible defense of individual agency.</p> <p class="p1">The starting hypothesis is that the literature of development studies that seeks to explain the variation of subjective well-being in the human development process tends to reduce freedom of choice, such as negative freedom (non-interference), to consumer economic freedom, which leads to false tracks and Eurocentric biases.</p> <p class="p1">The conclusion of the review is that it is necessary to recover the integral concept of freedom, as positive freedom or self-realization, associated with the Aristotelian-Marxist-Polanyian tradition, which links to the original approach of Amartya Sen.</p>}, number={2}, journal={Revista Internacional de Cooperación y Desarrollo}, author={Domínguez Martín, Rafael}, year={2019}, month={Dec.}, pages={50–67} }
