Hacia el concepto de la felicidad en economía

Abstract

Entre las diferentes corrientes del pensamiento económico, existe un concepto que ha brillado por su ausencia. La idea de la felicidad, además de no estar presente en la corriente dominante de la economía, ha sufrido un proceso de transformación a través de la evolución de la disciplina de manera que se crea un manto cada vez más grueso que opaca lo que se entiende por felicidad y de esa manera ha asociado el concepto con otros muy discutibles como la utilidad y la satisfacción de las necesidades. Sin embargo, algunos pensadores, tanto de la antigua Grecia como algunos economistas contemporáneos, han puesto en discusión esta verdadera problemática, que abarca una gama amplia de disciplinas, para llamar la atención a una ciencia que ha olvidado que mas que solo reproducir la riqueza, está en función de hacer personas felices llenas de goce y de bienestar.
