The Scottish instructor—one of threeBritons employed in the Yemeni school system—was drilling the class in the difference between the “present simple”and the “present continuous”. There were twenty very thin, very eager boys aged between about fourteen andtwenty-two. They were part of that tiny educated leaven in a country which has an illiteracy rate of ninety percent, andthey had tense, ambitious faces. They had been trained to compete continually against each other, so that the lessonturned into a kind of noisy greyhound race. The moment that the instructor was half-way through a question, his voicewas drowned by shouts of “Teacher! Teacher! Teacher!” and I lost sight of him behind the thicket of urgently raisedhands.

This is the view of many experts. In 1994, a group of expertsmet in Geneva to compose a more general document: “Draft Declaration of Principles on Human Rights and theEnvironment.” It proclaims, among other things, a universal human right to a “secure, healthy, ecologically soundenvironment.”But many economists give priority to economic growth because it leads to generally higher salaries and morespending power for average individuals. Market exchanges generally promote economic growth, except where publicgoods are concerned. In those cases, economists use cost-benefit analysis (CBA) to identify new rules of marketexchange that maximize growth.We note problems with this approach. Economic growth does not improve human welfare if it merely reflects higherprices and longer working hours stemming from the increasing scarcity of essential items, such as land to grow crops.When governments use CBA, they give equal consideration to each dollar rather than to each person. This goes againstthe ideal of equal government concern for all citizens. Also, CBA discounts the lives of future generation, as if peopleliving later have few human rights than those living now.CBAs put all variables in dollar terms so that optimal policies can be identified mathematically. Shadow prices areassigned to whatever is not traded in markets, including human lives.

Also, when people are killed in accidents caused by negligence, jury awardssuggest common estimates of a life’s monetary worth. The problem is that on such measures an average human life in apoor country is worth much less money than an American, European, or Japanese life. This denies an equal humanright to life.
