Podcast #22 is out
In this episode Rashid Gabdulkhakov and Yelena Kilina meet with Dina Sharipova and Alma Kudebayeva to compare #Kazakhstan and #Kyrgyzstan but also #Uzbekistan in a chat about subjective #wellbeing and how people evaluate their lives across #economic #social #political and #cognitive dimensions. One key aspect is the perception of the level of #freedom which often differs from the actual state of freedom.
