This volume is the first collection in the field of wellbeing
studies that places politics centre stage. Through a combination of
intellectual inquiry, empirically-grounded research, and
investigation across different settings, this book aims to provide
fresh insights and develop new lenses through which to understand
the rise and significance of the wellbeing agenda. Divided into
three parts, it considers how to define wellbeing for public
policy; the prospects for wellbeing as a force for political
change; and the link between policy agendas and the everyday lives
of people. The book explores the key political issues of power,
democracy, and the legitimacy of wellbeing evidence in a range of
settings - international, national and subnational/substate. The
volume will appeal to wellbeing and politics scholars, as well as
students and general readers with an interest in these new
political agendas.
