In 'Happycracia', Edgar Cabanas and Eva Illouz provide a critical analysis of the so-called 'science of happiness' and the multi-billion dollar industry surrounding it. The authors explore how this trend, which promises personal well-being and success, can become a tool for social control that imposes an obsessive and consumerist lifestyle, questioning whether happiness has been transformed into a commodity that dictates how we should think, feel, and act. This work invites readers to reflect on the social and cultural implications of this contemporary phenomenon, challenging the idea that success, health, and suffering are purely individual choices.
