Freedom and the Pursuit of Happiness: An Economic and Political Perspective
Bavetta, Sebastiano (Universita degli Studi, Palermo, Italy)
Different types of freedom have different impacts on happiness, as socioeconomic circumstances change. As the economy grows, happiness depends more on non-intrusive institutions that do not constrain people's political and economic possibility of self-expression. The implications for policy cannot be underestimated: maximizing freedom is a major goal in the pursuit of happiness.
