    Intrigued by this web of references, and wondering what a global lexicon of economic wellbeing might look like, as a collection, via different languages and cultural traditions and benchmarks. On growth, for example, I was struck, in my dissertation fieldwork in rural south India some years ago, by the many comparisons that farmers I knew would make between growing plants and children. There does seem to be a lot of scope to concretize growth once again, and thereby restore some semantic range that has been foreclosed by a narrow economism. Maybe this is what @Niloo had in mind with her recent post?
