The Politics of Happiness (A Manifesto from Finland)

The politics of happiness is a new political approach for those who believe that the political arena must assume a new course to build a happier life. Our current social model is not able to produce a happy future for generations to come.

Politics cannot directly make us happy. Nevertheless, it can make the pursuit of happiness possible, or even easy. Society at present is an obstacle course on the way to happiness, one complicated enough to make even the most capable seekers of happiness lose their way.
