Abstract: Economic growth and improvement of citizens? wellbeing are obligate targets of economic, social and institutional development of all countries and their governments. At the same time empirical evidence often shows that economic growth and increase of people?s income do not always have outcomes indicating that individual?s wellbeing has been improved. There are several non-economic and economic determinants of subjective well-being and knowing them is unavoidable in order to formulate and achieve targets for improvement of people?s wellbeing.
