REVISIÓN CRÍTICA DE LA MEDICIÓN DEL BIENESTAR DESDE UNA PERSPECTIVA INTERDISCIPLINAR: Hacia una propuesta de indicadores subjetivos y espaciales.

The study, assessment and design of social policies related to welfare have usually focused on material and economic indicators. However, some recent studies argue for the inclusion of subjective indicators to cater for aspects traditionally relegated to families private lives, such as care or the perception of happiness. According to this background, and from a perspective that seeks to integrate contributions of two social sciences such as sociology and geography, this paper aims a critical review of the scientific literature on subjective well-being, considering the sphere of care and taking welfare as a key element, and also a review of the available indicators. The final objective of this proposal would be to provide justifications and methodological keys, in order to integrate variables of care and territory in welfare analysis. To facilitate this review, we take the European geographical space as a field of study. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
