Prof. Veenhoven: Life used to be better. Man is not suitable for modern society


Details
Individualization and atomization in modern society is said to make us lonely and unhappy. But is that correct?
Ruut Veenhoven, emeritus professor of sociology at Erasmus University Rotterdam, was one of the first scientists in the world to take happiness seriously enough to investigate. Among other things, he founded the World Database of Happiness, (...) tracking the happiness status of almost all countries in the world for almost half a century.
