Description: Hidden Wealth of Nations, Paperback by Halpern, David, ISBN 0745648029, ISBN-13 9780745648026, Brand New, Free shipping in the US Richer nations are happier, yet economic growth doesnt increase happiness. This paradox is explained by the Hidden Wealth of Nations - the extent to which citizens get along with other independently drives both economic growth and well-being.
Much of this hidden wealth is expressed in everyday ways, such as our common values, the way we look after our children and elderly, or whether we trust and help strangers. It is a hidden dimension of inequality, and helps to explain why governments have found it so hard to reduce gaps in society. There are also deep cracks in this hidden wealth, in the form of our rising fears of crime, immigration and terror.
Using a rich variety of international comparisons and new analysis, th explores what is happening in contemporary societies from value change to the changing role of governments, and offers suggestions about what policymakers and citizens can do about it.
