RT Journal Article SR Electronic T1 An Ethical Model for the Study of Values JF Harvard Educational Review JO herp FD Harvard Educational Press SP 205 OP 227 DO 10.17763/haer.41.2.m74726854634025p VO 41 IS 2 A1 Goulet, Denis YR 1971 UL http://harvardeducationalreview.org/content/41/2/205.abstract AB The author challenges conventional notions of societal development as dynamic economic performance, modernization of institutions or proliferation of goods and services. For him, authentic development aims toward the realization of human capabilities in all spheres. He examines common assumptions of social scientists who study value change in non-technological societies, contrasting these with another view on the dynamics of value change. Dr. Goulet presents an alternative research model which requires researchers to make themselves vulnerable to the populace under study.
