Cuba is in the middle of the list, why? A country that gives US$ 25/month as salary, a quarter of chicken as meat/month, a jeans per year with this salary. I sincerely have my concerns about the credibility of this ranking. |

@"High suicide rate takes Finland and Japan down..."
At least Finnish suicide rate is somewhat a myth from the past, cause it has dropped significantly, in Europe the highest suicide rates are nowadays in Latvia, Lithuania, Hungary and Russia. It's hard to get info from countries that do not have proper statistics on this, like Russia, Belarus, Ukraine, Moldova and ex-Yugoslavia states. |

To Answer Abbas question What makes Sri Lanka a better place to live compared to India?
First of all you are right in that There are a lot of human rights(HR) abuses in Sri Lanka and that lots of civilians/children were killed during the last stages of the war.
However you have to look at the overall picture. The HDI takes into account factors GDP per capita (PPP), life expectancy,literacy, years of education etc.. Despite the disastrous war standards of living in Sri Lanka are relatively higher compared to INDIA. Literacy in Sri Lanka stands at 90%(2011) much higher than India's literacy of 74%(2011). Life expectancy in SL is at 74.4 yr s(2011) much higher than the Indian life expectancy of 65.5(2011).GDP per capita is relatively higher is SL than it is in India.
Second of all what about HR abuses in India. They aren't exactly the beacon of Human rights. For example Dalits and Adivasis In India are at the bottom of the Economic ladder of India, many are landless Labourers and are treated almost as badly as slaves by Upper caste Hindus. They are routinely abused, lynched, harrased, massacred by upper caste Hindus and the authorities(who are upper castes). Adivasis are often kicked of their lands by large companies who are after resources in their areas and authorities are complicit in this. SO PLEASE DON'T TRY TO TELL ME THAT THE HR SITUATION IN INDIA IS ANY BETTER THAN IN SRI LANKA.
Thirdly you talk about children in SR being slaughtered and rightfully so, but what about all the children India who die of malnutrition(1/2 of all malnutiritioned children in the world come from India), isn't that just as bad because they are dying of Govt. negligence. You have to remember that parts of India are as poor as Sub Saharan Africa.
Fourthly Former Yugoslav countries such as Bosnia, Serbia,Croatia committed the same HR abuses that SR is committing now. E.g Slobadan Melosovic and Bosnian death camps where 1000's or more Bosnian women and children were slaughtered. However a lot of these Yugoslav countries have much better standards of living than many 3rd world countries including your India. |

Marie ,
The HDI of a country is based on different factors.
the main reason for the uk being 15th is probably to do with the literacy rate being higher than chinas and also the number of people that are able to read and write to a certain standard before a certain age.
Hope this helps

@ Belanger:
You give a very clear and informative explanation of the HDI, but are you sure about your last sentence? "If a country wants political and financial power they have no choice but to sacrifice the social well being of its citizens."
By comparing the GINI index and the GPD per capita (both available on this site) it appears that a great many of the countries that invest heavily in social equality are also very wealthy. The US is unusual in being wealthy *despite* great inequality. |

15th October 2010 |
There are many comments on here that show a lack of understanding of what the HDI is about. It is published by the United Nations Development Program annually and it looks at far more than economics. It takes into account life expectancy, gender equality, health care, literacy levels, education, child well being, etc. It is not rigged or fixed. It is a comprehensive report based on facts from each country. Norway is at the top because it is a country that promotes social programs and values the social welfare of it's citizens. Investing is social programs equals higher quality of life all around. The USA, while powerful on a political and economic level is not advanced in its social programs. This is not a put down on the United States. It's just a fact. If you look at the social investment made by all the countries ranked above the USA you will understand this. If a country wants political and financial power they have no choice but to sacrifice the social well being of its citizens. |

It not suprising to see that americans whine about their position on the human development index. I saw an interview which BBC had done in USA. A reporter asked americans about simple geografical questions. I couldn't whatch any longer, after one guy agreed that the continent of Australia could be Iran. In my mind, that's not human development.. Ignorant americans always tell each other how great their country is. Well, you've still got some improvement to do! |

Countries high on the Human Development Index tend to have annual population growth rates of 1 percent or less, high urban population percentages (65 percent and up) and balanced percentages of people under 15 and over 65 years of age. Those low on the index tend to have annual population growth rates of 1.5 percent or higher, less than 35 percent of the population in urban areas, and an under-15 population that greatly outnumbers those above 65 years (in most cases, more than 10 times as many.)

It is impossible for countries with a low HDI to move higher in the index without getting a stable government as there is an obvious correlation between poorer countries and those with wars and corrupt governments. No aid should be given to these countries either as (like in Zimbabwe's case) the money given to them goes straight into the burgeoning pockets of those in the government. |

That's all you hear nowadays from these crackpots, how greedy the U.S. is, and they would love to see nothing more than the U.S. being neutered. Maybe we can cut our consumption so massively that we don't purchase anything from any other countries. Wait, that might decimate entire economies. Wait, that wouldn't be good either. Maybe we just need to pay more for everything. Then we will prioritize too much, meaning those at the bottom will get cut off completely as well, so that's a no-go also. Well maybe we can transform our government and everyone else's into the first galactic empire where we all share and sing the Coca-cola song and get along loving everyone. Instead of equal opportunity, we will just go straight to equal outcomes. Wait, something tells me that isn't so... Think about kids in school wisening up to the fact that they don't need to work so hard at excelling above other students because when they're all finished with college and are going into a career that it wouldn't have paid for them to excell in their academics because they have to share their wealth and aren't allowed to pursue success and wealth, as it's unfair to those that weren't/aren't as smart as them in academics. Why try harder when there isn't anything in it for them? We just need to teach them that they have to work for the collective, and stop being such selfish, Jeffersonian, Lockean, Franklinian, individualists. They should be good little Marxists instead. Well just check out the charts and graphs that show why socialist and communist countries don't and have never worked for any lengthy period. That's because they run out of OPP (that's--Other Peoples' Money), and they also lack incentive. Just remember that progressives and socialists believe that you are NOT smart enough to make decisions on your own behalf; therefore, most important decisions should and will have to be made for you by some centralized bureacracy/gov't for your benefit. We have these great progressive minds that can control every part of a planned society, we don't need any Constitution, or Founding Father Enlightenment crap. I mean, who the hell was Ben Franklin anyway; what smart things has he ever done for society? He was no Al Gore now was he? |

I do not know why developed countries like to see and continue to see developed countries like Ethiopia remaining on the bottom of HDI. What I think is that they must give their support-support that can really help them move out from that rampant poverty and the over 83 million people can see something different.
But with that fire fighting like support that is just for daily consumption, I do not think the HDI will be different in the coming decade even! |

SeanT, what does having the most billonaries have anything to do with the HDI? Just exactly what are you trying to say here with this comment? The USA has 300 MILLION PEOPLE to take care of. Canada only has a fraction of our population and Norway doesn't even have a fraction. So, I say the USA is doing well for being the 3rd most populous country in the world. By the way, the most recent HDI report from the UN indicated that the US has in fact INCREASED its standard of living and it is NOW ranked 8th on the international scale. |

with a security company. Presently, this money is still in the
security company, and the people in the security company did not
know the content of the box.
Recently, my Doctor told me that I would not last for the next
One Mouth due to cancer problem. The one that disturbs me most is
my stroke sickness. Having known my condition I decided to donate
this fund to a church that will utilize this money the way I am
going to instruct herein. I want a person that will use this fund
for orphanages, widows, propagating the word of God and to
endeavor that the house of God is maintained. The Bible made us
to understand that “Blessed is the hand that giveth.
I took this decision because of my only child that will inherit
25% from this money and help to secure a good education &
accomodation and also for the seck of God i will like you take
him as your child and been a guidiance to him where by my husband
relatives are not Christians and I don’t want my husband’s efforts
to be used by unbelievers. I don’t want a situation where this
money will be used in an ungodly way. This is why I am taking
this decision.
I am not afraid of death hence I know where I am going. I know
that I am going to be in the bosom of the Lord. Exodus 14 VS 14
says that “the lord will fight my case and I shall hold my
peace”. I don’t need any telephone communication in this regard
because of my health. With God all things are possible.As soon as
I receive your reply I shall give you the contact of the security
company, for you to contact with them directly on how they are
going to delivered the Trunk Box to you. I will also issue you an
authority letter that will prove you as the present beneficiary of
the Trunk Box. I want you and your family to always pray for me
and my son because the lord is my shephard. My happiness is that
I lived a life of a worthy Christian. Whoever that wants to serve
the Lord must serve him in spirit and truth.
Please always be prayerful all through your life Any delay in
your reply will give me room in sourcing another person for this
same purpose.Please assure me that you will act accordingly as I
stated herein.
Hoping to receive your reply.
Remain blessed in the Lord.
Yours in Christ,
Mrs Joy Kone and only son. |

Do these metrics include living space? In Russia you'll often find entire families crammed into tiny one-room apartments. Latvia is currently undergoing a building spree despite a marked decline in population because the average number of square meters of living space per person is less than half of the European average. I was surprised to find that Latvia is the only EU country that is not in the top two deciles. |

I would like to see more stats on Puerto Rico. Peurto Rico recently came out as the happiest country in the world. I want to see how that reflected in the HDI. Also, I know that crime in Peurto Rico is very high but I can't find the stats on crime. |

No surprise here ... European, North-American countries and Japan are topping the list.
I wish you I could see also what was the index in different countries 10 years ago. It would be easier to see how the countries are developing. |
