Theories of well-beingâand hence of âhappinessâ in the well-being senseâcome in three basic flavors, according to the best-known taxonomy (Parfit 1984): hedonism, desire theories, and objective list theories.
For example, Aristotle believed that happiness was an end in itself. You seek happiness for the sake of happiness, not for anything else, and everything you do is to get more happiness.
