people assume that development means quantitative growth, whereas its main
characteristic is qualitative change. |

"Culture." An economist
may see development as only an increase in wealth or income (absolute
or
per capita); and an engineer may see development as a greater
control over energy, or more sophisticated and powerful tools. |

social change in all six cultural dimensions: technological, economic,
political, interactive, ideological and world view. |
