Abstract: The paper analyzes the determinants of subjective well-being using data on the Cooperative Sociali Italiane Survey 2007. Aim of the work is to verify whether the genuine relationships among people and participation in activities with high social content may be qualified as essential components of happiness. Confirming the theoretical hypothesis, the empirical analysis shows that between the voluntary activity, to which is linked the production and the consumption of relational goods, and the level of subjective well-being there is a positive association.
