Global Happiness
Author: Roman Adrian Cybriwsky
Publisher: Bloomsbury Publishing USA
ISBN: 1440835578
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 334
Book Description
An authoritative, comprehensive, and highly accessible assessment of the happiest and least happy countries and cities in the world, as well as of the happiest and least happy cities and states in the United States. Which are the happiest countries in the world and which nations are the least contented? Which cities in the world are considered the happiest and unhappiest? Which American cities and states are at the top of the list and which ones rank poorly? Presenting findings that are based on solid data and authoritative information, this book offers a bold take on the geography of happiness around the world—and presents results that are often unexpected. It enables readers to make informed cross-cultural comparisons between countries and world cities, and uniquely synthesizes global information in a way that allows us answer the important question: "What makes us happy?" A book like no other, Global Happiness: A Guide to the Most Contented (and Discontented) Places around the Globe tackles the complex equation of determining what places offer the happiest living experiences by considering quality of life, prospects for the future, social relations, confidence in good government, and many other factors that together constitute critical differences in living experience. The author—a professor of geography and urban studies as well as a world traveler—also takes into account the current events, politics, and environmental situations of specific regions, states, and cities, and considers what residents of the cities and countries say about their own places to derive accurate and fair assessments.

Book Description
South Korea’s Official Development Assistance White Paper Official Development Assistance (ODA) refers to aid provided by the official sector such as the government’s aid to developing countries for the purpose of promoting economic development and welfare. ODA includes technical assistance and funds provided to the governments and territories of developing countries or to international organizations. ODA was initiated after World War II, when many advanced industrialized countries began providing assistance for their former colonies to alleviate poverty, putting into practice the global community’s collective spirit of cooperation. ODA began with declaration of the United Nations to ‘enhance international co-operation in solving international problems of an economic, social, cultural, or humanitarian character’ in the UN Charter in 1945 and establishment of emergency relief organizations including the Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO), the World Health Organization (WHO) and the UN Children’s Fund (UNICEF).

Development, Humanitarian Aid, and Social Welfare
Author: Cornelia C. Walther
Publisher: Springer Nature
ISBN: 3030426106
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 205
Book Description
This book examines how human behavior is shaped by our aspirations, emotions, thoughts and sensations, and conversely, how the experiences that result from our behavior impact ourselves, others and the planet. Based on an analysis of the constant interplay between these four layers, it offers practical solutions to systematically induce sustainable social change dynamics. It shows why change, in addition to economic and political transformation at the macro level, begins with mind-shifts at the micro level. Hereby it establishes the missing link between investments in personal empowerment and collective welfare. A novel theoretical paradigm is the foundation of this book, which is anchored in the perspective of an ongoing ‘body-mind-heart-soul connection.’ Based on the premise that an equitable society is to the benefit of everyone, it is argued that efforts made for others have benefits at three levels – for the individual who acts, the one who has been acted for and for society.

Book Description
This book provides a comprehensive treatment of how happiness and wellbeing are measured.
