Overview
This book introduces recent research on social capital and well-being and applies it to key issues facing individuals and governments in the age of globalization. Helliwell (economics, U. of British Columbia), emphasizes well-being as an explicit focus for research and for public policies, and argues that countries like Canada can retain their distinctive qualities while having independent national and international policies.
