Gross domestic product is the most commonly used measure of development, both in academia as well as wider society discourse. It describes the material production of a society within the course of a calendar year. While useful in informing policy and business decisions it is markedly limited by its one-dimensional nature. Well-being on the other hand rather than being the absence of illness is instead a long-term condition that allows an individual or group to flourish and perform well within society. Ensuring that public policy reflects this has been a central tent of modern economics post-1990 (Quick, 2020). Today, governing authorities and economists are increasingly using tools such as 'happiness' upon which to base spending and policy decisions. The main question that arises is not whether GDP is a perfect indicator of a country's economic progress but whether it is the best approach to judge the overall prosperity and wellbeing of a country. In this paper we explore GDP and well-being, the risk that this valuable economic metric is under as well as GDP alternatives. (EN)
