Beschreibung

This book offers the first comprehensive examination of life satisfaction and happiness in Central Asia from an empirical and comparative perspective. Drawing on econometric models, it reveals how economic conditions, gender, culture, and social norms shape subjective well-being in Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Tajikistan, Turkmenistan, and Uzbekistan. The findings provide insights into the complex structure of quality of life in a region that has received little attention in happiness research. As such, the book makes a pioneering contribution to the study of well-being in Central Asia and serves as a valuable resource for scholars, policymakers, and researchers interested in happiness-oriented development and the determinants of well-being worldwide.

She has conducted research on the well-being of housewives at the Erasmus Happiness Economics Research Organization under the supervision of Professor Ruut Veenhoven. As a visiting scholar at Indiana University, she studied life satisfaction among Uzbek women migrants in Turkey. She was a fellow with the George Washington University–Nazarbayev University (NU-CAP), where she analyzed internal and external migration in Central Asia.
