Editor's Notes
Less economically developed countries (LEDCs) are countries that exhibit the lowest indicators of socioeconomic development. According to United Nations standards, these countries have low incomes, human resource weaknesses, and economic vulnerabilities that include weak natural resources or population displacement.
For instance, Brazil, Russia, India, China, and South Africa (BRICS) are generally considered developing countries, but examples of common developing countries go far beyond these popular emerging markets.
The World Bank has a much more concrete methodology, as it considers countries with a per capita income of less than $12,275 as "developing" countries.
Economic criteria have tended to dominate discussions.
One such criterion is income per capita; countries with high gross domestic product (GDP) per capita would thus be described as developed countries.
Another economic criterion is industrialization; countries in which the tertiary and quaternary sectors of industry dominate would thus be described as developed.
More recently another measure, the Human Development Index (HDI), which combines an economic measure, national income, with other measures, indices for life expectancy and education has become prominent. This criterion would define developed countries as those with a very high (HDI) rating. The index, however, does not take into account several factors, such as the net wealth per capita or the relative quality of goods in a country. This situation tends to lower the ranking for some of the most advanced countries, such as the G7 members and others
The United Nations Development Program’s (UNDP) annual Human Development Report (HDR) defines human development as, “the expansion of people’s freedoms and capabilities to lead lives that they value and have reason to value. It is about expanding choices. Freedoms and capabilities are a more expansive notion than basic needs.” In other words, people in developing countries strive to move up the ladder of development in order both to meet basic needs and to have the opportunity to lead richer, more fulfilling lives.
The bedrock of a well-ordered society is a well-functioning judicial system. Achieving even a reasonable semblance of one would also preclude the ‘need’ for military courts which were described by the judge himself on Thursday as “an aberration propelled by necessity and expediency”.
Perhaps in this is an implied recognition of the perils inherent in a blurring of institutional boundaries. One would certainly hope so.
For most of Pakistan’s history, the superior judiciary has unfortunately wielded its power not to strengthen democracy, but to undermine and discredit it.
