Abstract: Au cours des récentes décennies, la recherche sur les déterminants du bien-être des individus est passée d’une focalisation traditionnelle sur le revenu et la consommation à une approche multidimensionnelle plus riche.

“…There is considerable empirical evidence on the positive effect of decentralization, as an institutional instrument, on access to public services and poverty reduction in, for example, Benin (Caldeira et al, 2012), while in some cases the effects of decentralization are negative, for example, in Uganda (Bahiigwa et al, 2005). Similarly, using cross-sectional data from 143 countries, Malah Kuété et al (2022) find that people consider themselves more satisfied with their lives in decentralized states compared to centralized ones. This implies that political decentralization has a positive impact on citizens' well-being.…”
