My view of the stakes

08/16/2019

My blogs will focus on what I called Social Infrastructure (SI) in my pioneering work on wealth metrics at the World Bank (see Washington Post article from 1995, here). SI is what we invest in how people collaborate as well as compete. The World Bank routinely updates and modifies wealth metrics; most recently here.

SI is 'intangible', as is Human Resources (HR), or investing in individuals--say their health and education. The difference is that HR moves with people; SI attaches to places--with this blog zeroing in on Duval County's SI.
