Offers a link between happiness and economics - and between happiness and democracy. This book demonstrates how micro- and macro-economic conditions in the form of income, unemployment, and inflation affect happiness. It shows that the more developed the democratic institutions and the degree of local autonomy, the more satisfied people are.
