In recent years, debates on the economics of happiness have shown
that, over the long-term, well-being is influenced more by social
and personal relationships than by income. This evidence challenges
the traditional economic policy paradigm that has emphasized income
as the primary determinant of well-being. This volume brings
together contributions from leading scholars to ask: What should be
done to improve the quality of people's lives? Can economic and
social changes be made which enhance well-being? What policies are
required? How do policies for well-being differ from traditional
ones targeted on redistribution, the correction of market
inefficiencies, and growth? Are there dimensions of well-being that
have been neglected by traditional policies? Is happiness a
meaningful policy target? The volume presents reflections and
proposals which constitute a first step towards answering these
questions.
