SIMON KUZNETS AND THE POLITICS OF GROSS NATIONAL PRODUCT: THE UNITED STATES 57 5. WAR, KIDNAPPING, AND DATA THEFT: GERMANY 97 6. THE ULTIMATE TRIUMPH OF GROSS NATIONAL PRODUCT 123 CONCLUSION 147 Notes IS7 Index 175 WIDELY USED SINCE THE mid-twentieth century, GDP (gross domes- tic product:) has become the world's most powerful statistical indicator of national development and progress. Practically all governments adhere to the idea that GDP growth is a primary economic target, and while criticism of this measure has grown, neither its champions nor its detractors deny its central importance in our political culture. In The JPovoer of a Single Nzimbev, Philipp Lepenies recounts the lively history of OOP’s political acceptance—and eventual domi- nance. Locating the origins of GOP mea- surement in Renaissance England, Lepenies explores the social and political factors that originally hindered its use. It was not until the early 1900s that an ingenious lone-wolf economist revived and honed OOP’s sta- tistical approach. These ideas were then extended by John IVTaynard Keynes, and a more focused study of national income was born. American economists furthered this work by emphasizing OOP’s ties to social well-being, setting the stage for its ascent. GOP finally achieved its singular status during World War II, assuming the impor- tance it retains today. Lepenies’s absorbing account helps us understand the personali- ties and popular events that propelled OOP to supremacy and clarifies current debates over the wisdom of the number’s rule.
