      title = {Social value in public policy /},
      abstract = {This book considers the role of social value in the making  and implementation of public policy, taking into account  how concepts such as subjective well-being (SWB) can be  used to measure the expected impact of enacted policies. It  argues that there is no evidence that markets have  contributed to greater well-being, and that moments of  crisis, such as the COVID-19 pandemic, represent an  opportunity to re-orientate policymaking and policy  implementation away from those which favour markets, and  towards those which place subjective well-being at their  core. Following this premise, the author explores the  elements that should be considered in a future society that  prioritises social value. Bill Jordan is Honorary Professor  of Social Policy at the University of Plymouth, UK. He has  held visiting chairs in Germany, the Netherlands, Denmark,  Slovakia and Hungary. He worked for 20 years in the UK  social services, and is the author of 27 books on social  policy, social theory, politics and social work.--},
