Book Description
This book represents a collection of a selected papers from an international conference focusing on “the right to happiness”, held in Bucharest in December 2012, organized by Dimitie Cantemir Christian Bucharest University, the Romanian Academy’s Research Institute for Quality of Life – Bucharest and the Romanian Institute for Human Rights – Bucharest. The analysis of happiness from the perspective of the quality of life is a unique development in human rights literature. This analysis is based on people having an active role in bestowing meaning on different components of their life. People have the means and the power to decide whether their life is good or bad by taking into account their subjective perceptions, such as how different domains, such as the family, professional, and civic realms, of their lives interact and what their meanings for their entire lives are. In truth, modern society, faced with multiple risks of development, has to be controlled by the wisdom or rationality of collective ethics principles in order to grant individual satisfaction. Its means of development through cutting edge technology can contribute to human accomplishments, but also to human downfalls. Thus, in a modern culture, responsible control of technology becomes mandatory. In today’s world, it is impossible to talk about individual satisfaction without collective morals, without the collective responsibility that guides the directions of development of humankind. This book discusses the issue of quality of life, and sustains a pragmatic vision of the pursuit of happiness and well-being, based on changes aimed at the continual improvement of one’s interior and exterior universe.

Book Description
Les économies anglo-saxonnes ont vécu, entre le milieu des années 1970 et la fin des années 1980, sous le signe de la déréglementation, et le mouvement qu'elles impulsèrent ne tarda pas à se propager à l'ensemble du monde, transformant ainsi de façon radicale les règles du jeu auxquelles sont soumis les agents économiques. Souvent dû à des facteurs techniques, ce processus fut également encouragé par les pouvoirs publics qui, face à la crise, ne voyaient d'autre salut que la mise en cause de pratiques qui avaient fait l'objet d'un assez large consensus pendant les années de croissance consécutives à la seconde guerre mondiale. Longtemps conçu comme un ensemble de garde-fous destiné à limiter les abus et à protéger les agents, le cadre réglementaire n'apparaissait plus guère que comme un carcan entravant le libre jeu des forces du marché, nuisant à l'efficacité économique et expliquant donc le ralentissement de la croissance. Cet ouvrage, qui rassemble les actes d'un colloque organisé en juin 1993 à l'Université de la Sorbonne Nouvelle par le Centre d'études et de recherches sur la vie économique des pays anglo-saxons (CERVEPAS), ne prétend pas épuiser le sujet. Il enrichit toutefois notre réflexion en proposant une étude comparée des évolutions qui se sont produites en Grande-Bretagne et aux États-Unis, sur lesquelles universitaires français et acteurs ou observateurs privilégiés venus d'outre-Manche ou d'outre-Atlantique portent des regards croisés. Situant la déréglementation dans la perspective de l'histoire des faits et de la pensée économiques, il analyse aussi les mesures mises en œuvre dans des secteurs comme la défense et l'audiovisuel, ou encore dans le domaine bancaire et financier. Se trouve ainsi mise en lumière la très grande variété des mécanismes en jeu. dont ne saurait rendre compte un chapelet d'analyses monocausales. À l'épaisseur des faits se devait en effet de répondre la diversité des angles d'approche. Le bilan dressé ici permettra sans doute à tous ceux qui s'intéressent aux économies anglo-saxonnes de mieux cerner les perspective qui s’ouvrent à elles pour l’avenir.
