MUNOZ CARDONA, Ángel Emilio; MARTINEZ SOTO, Lorena y MANRIQUE MIRANDA, Mauricio. The Right to Urban Happiness and Indexes of Happy Cities. Semest. Econ. [online]. 2021, vol.24, n.57, pp.258-281. Epub 28-Jul-2022. ISSN 0120-6346. https://doi.org/10.22395/seec.v24n57a13.
The purpose of the article is to show the importance of urban happiness as a right of social welfare and what are the indicators of international measures that countries must comply with. The research question is: How to achieve happier cities? To answer the question, from the inductive method, a bibliographic search will be made of the concept of urban happiness and of the most relevant health, education and governance indicators proposed since 1979 by the different countries and research centers. Similarly, a contemporary count of the countries with the best indicators of urban happiness and their reasons will be made. Finally, some exemplifying cases of countries with better inter-subjective happiness indexes will be given. The article concludes with the importance of developing countries for achieving more social economies, capable of integrating growth in production (Economic growth) with general welfare and the enjoyment of public values.
