PROGRESS AND WELL-BEING. FROM IDEAS ABOUT SOCIAL PROGRESS TO PUBLIC WELL-BEING POLICIES (AND THEIR DECLINE)

The deterioration of the social conditions that were supposed to provide us with public well-being is calling into question the meaning of our social and individual progress. This book addresses these losses, with a markedly interdisciplinary approach: political scientists, economists, lawyers, historians, and philosophers, as it addresses social issues both synchronically and diachronically.
