"Life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness". The words immortalised in the United States Declaration of Independence remind us that the desire to be happy is a fundamental part of everyone's life. Along with GDP, wealth and political freedoms, the degree of happiness that people enjoy is also worth taking into account in any measure of democracy's health and efficiency.
It was in this spirit that the UN declared the 20 March International Day of Happiness, which today [yesterday] celebrates its second anniversary.
