Abstract: This is a paper that draws the attention on the possible solutions needed to improve the quality of life. People’s quality of life should be studied in terms of the social facets of the concept, which combine the micro, mezzo and macro – social levels; it starts with the individual and then moves on to different social groups and human communities. In the past, the attention was focused on a few important economic indicators: GDP, CPI, unemployment rate, level of household income, etc. Now, the quality of life has become an attraction for policy makers. A sustainable high-level quality of life and wealth for all the members of the society is the ultimate goal of the public policy. The attention is currently focused on fostering economic growth and creating more jobs. But will this be enough for achieving a better quality of life and more wealth on the long run?
