Taken from the German Socioeconomic Panel (SOEP), the information on leisure time activities has been processed with a network-based technique to build a multidimensional index proxying well-being. The second essay presents an evolutionary analysis of cumulative deprivation for the Italian working-age population between 2007 and 2018. A rank-based multidimensional approach is applied ...
