It is true that economic growth, by increasing a nation's total wealth, also
enhances its potential for reducing poverty and solving other social
problems. But history offers a number of examples where economic growth was
not followed by similar progress in human development.
Instead growth was achieved at the cost of greater inequality,
higher unemployment, weakened democracy, loss of cultural identity, or
overconsumption of natural resources needed by future generations. As the
links between economic growth and social and environmental issues are better
understood, experts including economists tend to agree that this kind of
growth is inevitably unsustainable-that is, it cannot continue along the same
lines for long.
