Are Africans happy? 'Return to laughter' in times of war, famine and misery

Abstract:
Happiness is a universal state of mind. However, its meaning takes on culture-specific forms, ranging from emotional states of mind to life satisfaction. The definition of 'happiness' is strongly influenced by the respective philosophical background and material living conditions and is shaped by linguistic differences. Even within countries, location and social structure are important in the conceptualization and measurement of wellbeing. Exceptions prove the rule. In Laura Bohannan’s classic anthropological study of the Tiv in the Nigerian Middle Belt in the 1950s, the ‘return to laughter’ signified the laughter of despair, e.g. when people laughed at human misery given omnipresent witchcraft. Another exemption of the rule is related to COVID-19 lockdowns that were associated with a drop in satisfaction, regardless of country-specific characteristics or the type and duration of the lockdown. In Sub-Saharan Africa both the level of happiness and the level of income have shown increasing tendencies in recent decades. However, trends in inequality between indicators of income and happiness can diverge significantly. In general, happiness does not automatically increase with increasing income but lags behind. As shown by the economy of happiness, this paradox does not appear to occur in countries like South Africa, the most unequal country in the world. The country registered growing equality of happiness despite rising income inequality. Obviously, the absolute impact of income and happiness inequality at the country level is more important than the relative impact. Hence, happiness inequality, in general, can be a useful supplementary measure of inequality, particularly in Africa, which is considered a 'black spot' when it comes to happiness research. ; Glück ist eine universelle Geistesverfassung. Ihre Bedeutung nimmt jedoch kulturspezifische Formen an und reicht von emotionalen Gemütszuständen bis hin zur allgemeinen Lebenszufriedenheit. Die Definition von ‚Glück‘ ist stark von jeweiligen philosophischen Hintergründen sowie materiellen Lebensumständen beeinflusst und von sprachlichen Unterschieden geprägt. Selbst innerhalb von Ländern sind der Standort und die soziale Struktur wichtig für die Konzeptualisierung und Messung des Wohlbefindens. Ausnahmen bestätigen die Regel. In Laura Bohannans klassischer anthropologischer Studie über die Tiv im nigerianischen Mittelgürtel in den 1950er Jahren bedeutete die "Rückkehr zum Lachen" das Lachen der Verzweiflung, z.B. wenn Menschen angesichts der allgegenwärtigen Hexerei über menschliches Elend lachten. Eine weitere Ausnahme von der Regel betrifft COVID-19-Lockdowns, die mit einem Rückgang der Zufriedenheit verbunden waren, unabhängig von länderspezifischen Besonderheiten oder der Art und Dauer des Lockdowns. In Subsahara-Afrika zeigten sowohl das Glücks- als auch das Einkommensniveau in den letzten Jahrzehnten steigende Tendenzen. Allerdings können die Entwicklungstrends der Ungleichheit zwischen Einkommens- und Glücksindikatoren erheblich auseinanderklaffen. Generell wächst das Glück nicht automatisch mit steigendem Einkommen, sondern hinkt hinterher. Dieses Paradoxon, tritt so, wie es die Glücksökonomie aufzeigt, jedoch in Ländern wie Südafrika, einem der ungleichsten Länder der Welt, offenbar nicht ein. Das Land registrierte eine wachsende Glücksgleichheit trotz zunehmender Einkommensungleichheit. Offensichtlich ist die absolute Auswirkung von Einkommens- und Glücksungleichheit auf Länderebene wichtiger als die relative Auswirkung. Daher kann die Glücksungleichheit im Allgemeinen ein nützliches ergänzendes Maß für Ungleichheit sein, insbesondere in Afrika, das in Bezug auf die Glücksforschung als "schwarzer Fleck" gilt.
