Development of Happiness in the Contemporary World

This peer-reviewed book series offers insights into our current reality by exploring the content and consequences of power relationships under capitalism, and by considering the spaces of opposition and resistance to these changes that have been defining our new age.

Development of Happiness in the Contemporary World challenges us to re-think how we measure success, showing that Gross Domestic Product (GDP) is not enough to define progress.

This volume takes readers on a journey from traditional economic measures to groundbreaking models like Doughnut Economics, blending cutting-edge research with compelling examples. It uncovers how alternative frameworks better capture well-being, sustainability, and equity in today’s world. Featuring rare insights and fresh data, it connects economic theory with real-life solutions to global challenges. Whether you’re a policymaker, economist, or curious reader, this book equips you with the tools to rethink prosperity and create a happier, more sustainable future.
