Part 2 - Key issues
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 01 September 2022
Summary
In this part, we consider the issues of concept, policy, practice and measurement in specific contexts. These contexts are derived from the authors’ recent research experiences and are not designed to provide the ‘elements’ of wellbeing. Rather, they are lenses through which it is possible to consider the propositions made about wellbeing in Chapter 1: that wellbeing is subjectively experienced, contextual and embedded, and relational. They are also opportunities through which we explore the questions related to wellbeing as a concept in respect of the effects and practices of wellbeing. Each chapter is to be understood in the context of the visual heuristic introduced earlier (Figure 1.3).
