不丹是喜马拉雅山南麓的小国,偏僻闭塞,却一度成为舆论关注的对象。因为该国提出了一个名为“国民幸福总值”的概念,与国际上通用的各种衡量经济社会发展的指标大为不同。“政策应该关注幸福,并应以实现幸福为目标。”该国国王如是说。 Bhutan is a small country in the southern part of the Himalayas. It is a secluded area that once became the object of media attention. Because the country has proposed a concept called “Gross National Happiness,” which is very different from the various internationally-used indicators for measuring economic and social development. “Policies should focus on happiness and aim at achieving happiness,” said the king of the country.
