| description | The globalizing and diversifying world demands from sociology to constantly redefine its boundaries, especially with psychology. It is also necessary to identify the specifics of the sociological interest to such a psychological issue as mental health. This can be done by limiting the focus of the sociological study to the social well-being that can be 'measured' in three perspectives: first, identification of value orientations; second, description of fears that prevail in society or its particular groups; and, third, attempts to measure the level of happiness, its factors and components in terms of their 'size' , changes and sustainability at the national level and in the comparative perspective. The article presents some empirical examples of all three sociological 'dimensions' of the social well-being. |
