Well-being is a core concept for measuring the satisfaction of citizens with and in their social, political and economic situations. In particular, it is local conditions that are decisive for such an evaluation-and thus also for local welfare production. In addition to municipalities as state authorities, initiatives, non-commercial organisations, associations and federations are also decisive as important welfare producers. From a comparative perspective, the contributions in this volume shed light on various aspects and dimensions of local welfare production and their effects on citizens' satisfaction. They examine examples from Russia and Germany, in particular the two cities Petrozavodsk and Tubingen as well as the Republic of Karelia and Baden-Wurttemberg: the theoretical foundations and social challenges, their attitudes and populations, participatory projects and measures of welfare production.
