Happyology

Ronald Inglehart – Director, World Values Survey

Happiness is considered the main goal of most humans. But it appears we don’t really know a lot about it. What makes us happy? How do we know we are happy? Since the beginning of times, philosophers have tried to answer to these questions. They failed. And now scientists say – it’s time for them to step in and try again. My guest on today's show is renowned American sociologist and political scientist Ronald Ingle-hart, author of the post-materialism concept and director of the influential World Values Survey.
