Das Bruttoinlandsprodukt (BIP) pro Kopf ist ein wirtschaftlicher Kennwert, der angibt, wie viel wirtschaftliche Leistung – also der Gesamtwert aller im Inland produzierten Güter und Dienstleistungen innerhalb eines Jahres – rechnerisch auf jede einzelne Person eines Landes entfällt. Es wird berechnet, indem das gesamte BIP durch die Bevölkerungszahl geteilt wird.
Dieser Indikator dient häufig als grobe Messgröße für den durchschnittlichen materiellen Wohlstand oder den Lebensstandard eines Landes. Ein hohes BIP pro Kopf deutet darauf hin, dass dem Einzelnen – statistisch gesehen – mehr wirtschaftliche Ressourcen zur Verfügung stehen. Allerdings ist zu beachten, dass dieser Durchschnittswert nichts über die tatsächliche Einkommensverteilung aussagt. In Ländern mit großer sozialer Ungleichheit kann das BIP pro Kopf den realen Lebensstandard breiter Bevölkerungsschichten verzerren.
Zudem berücksichtigt das BIP pro Kopf keine sozialen, ökologischen oder qualitativen Aspekte des Lebens – wie Bildung, Gesundheit, Umweltqualität oder politische Teilhabe. Es bleibt damit ein rein ökonomischer Indikator, der zur Beurteilung von Wohlstand nur eingeschränkt tauglich ist. Für eine ganzheitliche Bewertung gesellschaftlicher Entwicklung sollten daher ergänzende Indikatoren herangezogen werden.
