The second in a series of books published with the IZA, this volume presents Richard Easterlin's outstanding research on the analysis of subjective well-being, and on the relationship between demographic developments and economic outcomes. In both fields, his work has laid the foundations for enlarging the scope of traditional economic analysis and has increased our understanding of behaviour in several important domains, such as fertility choices, labour market behaviour, and the determinants of individual well-being. In various seminal contributions, Easterlin has demonstrated the importance of material aspirations and relative economic status for human behaviour. This book is a collection of 11 of his key papers, revised and edited to make a cohesive book. New material includes an Introduction from the editors, two section Introductions from Easterlin, and an Epilogue from Easterlin.

La 4e de couverture indique : "Le bonheur se construirait, s'enseignerait et s'apprendrait : telle est l'idée à laquelle la psychologie positive, née au tournant du siècle, s'attache à conférer une légitimité scientifique. Il suffirait d'écouter les experts pour devenir heureux. L'industrie du bonheur, qui brasse des millions d'euros, affirme ainsi pouvoir façonner les individus en créatures capables de faire obstruction aux sentiments négatifs, de tirer le meilleur parti d'elles-mêmes en contrôlant totalement leurs désirs improductifs et leurs pensées défaitistes. Mais n'aurions-nous pas affaire ici à une autre ruse destinée à nous convaincre, encore une fois, que la richesse et la pauvreté, le succès et l'échec, la santé et la maladie sont de notre seule responsabilité ? Et si la dite science du bonheur visait à nous convertir à un modèle individualiste niant toute idée de société ? Edgar Cabanas et Eva Illouz reconstituent ici avec brio les origines de cette nouvelle " science " et explorent les implications d'un phénomène parmi les plus captivants et inquiétants de ce début de siècle"

Qu’est ce que le bonheur ? Comment le mesurer et en tenir compte dans les politiques publiques ? Quels en sont les enjeux et les conséquences dans notre vie quotidienne ? Serons-nous acteurs de cette réflexion et de ces choix ? Au départ et autour de ces questions, le livre analyse et met en perspective le débat sur les indicateurs de bien-être. Il présente six indicateurs complémentaires au PIB (Produit intérieur brut) et réfléchit sur le rôle du citoyen et du politique dans leur construction comme boussoles pour nos sociétés. Il y a, aujourd’hui, une vraie nécessité à clarifier les enjeux aux yeux des citoyens pour se faire une opinion et agir.

This book is the first of its kind to provide a comprehensive overview of happiness in Economics. Although it is comparatively unusual to put happiness and economics together, the association appears increasingly exciting and fruitful. A number of studies have been produced following Richard Easterlins and Tibor Scitovskys pioneering works throughout the 1970s. The essays collected in this book provide an authoritative and comprehensive assessment both theoretical, applied andpartly experimental of the whole field moving from the so-called paradoxes of happiness in Economics.

In this text a leading economist discusses the potential of happiness research (the qualification of well-being) to answer important questions that standard economics methods are unable to analyze. Emphasizing empirical evidence rather than theoretical conjectures, Frey substantiates the need for happiness research.
