Summary: | "Happiness has become a central issue in research in recent years. This book brings together researchers from around Europe to present, analyse and discuss the relation between happiness and social policy. Bent Greve demonstrates in this unique book, that research on happiness is important to understand and that the welfare state and social policy is essential in promoting more jobs, social inclusion and to a certain degree also a high level of equality. He highlights that while differences do exist among the countries studied, clearly social policy has a role in increasing happiness in Europe." |
