Abstract

The Coronavirus disease 2019 (Covid-19) crisis and the subsequent lock-downs of large parts of humanity have triggered and renewed fundamental questions about the true finality not only of the economy but also of human existence, many of which were initiated well before this crisis. Among those, the need to define what is really essential to human well-being stands out: What do we really need? What can we actually do without? What should we do without? In closing of this volume, I will try to shed light on these complex questions that will determine in the very short-run public policies in the perspective of the well-being transition.
