摘要
The objective of this study is to assess the impact of happiness on the nation's growth in an effort to understand the importance of placing human well-being at the center of policy making decisions that would develop communities in a more sustainable way. This study uses the technique of dynamic panel estimation of Generalized Methods of Moments (GMM) to analyze a set of micro-panel data from fifty countries selected for the period 2000 to 2013. The results show evidence that happiness and the formation of capital have a favourable impact on economic growth.
