Development and its Measuring Indicators

Abstract

Developmentis a goal that all countries and governments seek to achieve, whether these governments are liberal, socialist, or mixed.  Therefore, governments and countries have allocated exorbitant funds to achieve this, even through external borrowing.  In order to achieve goals, an accurate controlling methodology ishighly required to monitor all variables that contribute effectively to the success of the goals and their embodiment in the field, as well as to avoid any deviations that hinder the fixed goals. Accordingly, this needs reliance on reliable standards and indicators in judging the success or failure of the development programs pursued by countries and governments in the advancement of their societies.
