Gail Pacheco and Don Webber

New Zealand Economic Papers, 2012, vol. 46, issue 3, 189-190

Abstract: This special issue highlights the growing trend in applied economics research of the use and analysis of subjective concepts, such as quality of life. It contains five studies that highlight the broad range of research currently in vogue, including the valuation of protected areas, a living standards approach to public policy, the determinants of life satisfaction, fractionalisation and wellbeing, and trends in wellbeing of women.
