Abstract

The work that I am converting is an essay I wrote for PLCY 340: Justic in Public Policy. In this course we examine the philosophy behind policy making. My essay examines different approaches to measure a policy besides GDP. In this essay I look at different viewpoint like hedonism and preference selection. I also make a case for GDP (as an economics major) and look at why GDP is not a good measure.

Conversion Process

To convert my markdown document I used pandoc commands in Unix script that converted to a Microsoft Word document, text file, PDF, ODT, and HTML file. Besides that, it didn’t involve too much else.
