“…According to these authors, to understand Good Living, sustainable well-being as a new metric should incorporate ideas from the fields of ecology and human psychology. Specifically, the workplace should be explored from the point of view of positive psychology [97,[99][100][101], which states that sustainable development can only materialize in work environments that promote health and well-being of workers. This philosophy is the basis of the European Employment Strategy, which aims to create more (quantity) and better (quality) jobs [102][103][104].…”

Contributions of Subjective Well-Being and Good Living to the Contemporary Development of the Notion of Sustainable Human Development

et al. 2021

The article analyzes the contributions of the notions of Good Living attributable to epistemologies, traditions, and subjective well-being at work, given the current changes in the working context, to enrich the concept of human development. The article is developed with an analytical-descriptive and synthetic approach, reconstructing the concept of Good Living through a theoretical-economic, ontological, and epistemological comparison and its dimensional axes. Methodologically, a systematic review of human development literature is used in Latin America through the Web of Science (WOS), comparing the UNDP Technical Notes (HDI) with the various approaches to Good Living published between 2010 and 2020. These documents were subjected to semantic contrast, with reference to the various dimensions and positions of human development as a generator of subjective well-being for the configuration of public labor policies. The main findings refer to the disagreement points evidenced in the two-axes dimensions of the Good Living measurement systems (mobility and safety, and cultural satisfaction within territories), an important factor being the sumak kawsay, the concept of Good Living. Sumak is fullness, the sublime, excellent, magnificent, beautiful, superior. Kawsay is life, being. However, it is dynamic, changing, and is not a passive question, and is thus not considered by the different evolutionary changes of the HDI.

“…Finally, it is evident that under this broad heading the problem of managing explicit information on microentrepreneurs in Latin America with a track record in welfare management on informal labor is complex to explain at this point [42,74,75]. However, it is important to remember that enterprises are heterogeneous, so that trying to classify them on the basis of their size is not easy, although it is necessary for institutions wishing to establish support programs and for researchers who intend to study them.…”

“…In this sense, from the beginning, the category of the informal economy was linked to the work of public policies. The study of informal work was associated with subsistence activities of those working in the marginal sectors of the economy [42], and the predominant approach was to study the informal economy in the framework of social inequality, from the point of view of gaps in employment opportunities, quality of working conditions and income from work [43]. In this perspective, the informal sector would be the result of surplus labour for employment.…”

Latin America has suffered for many years deep economic, political, and social problems that have led to high levels of unemployment. Therefore, microentrepreneurship has been a way out of these precarious economic systems. This research presents an interpretative hermeneutic analysis of the meaning of work for microentrepreneurs in the metropolitan region of Lima, Peru. The qualitative naturalistic methodology was used and data were obtained through 24 interviews with microentrepreneurs according to inclusion criteria such as: located in the metropolitan region of Lima (divided into 4 regions: A, B, C, and D), more than 5 years of experience, more than 25 years of age, university level of study and having had a formal job. The data were processed through ATLAS.ti9, which allowed us to analyze the discourses of the microentrepreneurs. The main findings show the following emerging categories: Motivation for entrepreneurship, Advantages of self-employment, relationship with stakeholders or interest groups, and family involvement in the business. It is concluded that Latin American microentrepreneurs associate entrepreneurship as an opportunity to improve their quality of life and establish relationships with stakeholders, with the family playing a key role in the success or failure of the business.

“…The theory of planned behavior (TPB), proposed by some authors, seeks to predict a given behavior by taking into account both internal and external factors that enable, contextualize, and constrain the action [31][32][33][34]. According to [32], social science researchers recommend using TPB when studying consumer behavior [35], which assumes that intention is considered as a precursor to and the best predictor of behavior. However, this model postulates that the intention to perform a given behavior is the most immediate antecedent and the best predictor of the actual behavior performance [36].…”

The present research aims to determine which factors of the theory of planned behavior most influence the intention to watch Mexican movies, and, at the same time, to measure the impact of eWOM and the level of audience involvement in the intention. For this purpose, an online questionnaire was applied through social networks, obtaining a sample of 334 Mexican people over 18 years old. The data were analyzed using a partial least squares structural equation model (PLS-SEM). The results confirmed that the variables that explained the intention to watch Mexican movies were attitude, perceived purchase control, and involvement, with the latter being the attitude variable the one that contributed the most to intention. The present research contributes to the literature on movie consumption in Mexico with an empirical perspective from the marketing field.
