This lecture explores why happiness does not increase with GDP per capita, discussing concepts such as decreasing marginal satisfaction from consumption, relative prosperity, and the psychological and material costs of economic growth. It also delves into the determinants of happiness, including social support, healthy life expectancy, and freedom to make essential choices.
