Abstract

[This chapter discusses the development of a model to measure quality of life and different forms of inequalities: social, cultural, political, religious, and economic. It emerges as a result of a project conducted by the Research Program on Quality of Life, created in 2004 in the Faculty of Social Sciences, UNICOM and LOMASCyT Universidad Nacional de Lomas de Zamora, Argentina, which has focused on research into quality of life for young people. Our conceptual framework and domains will produce a survey for which a questionnaire will be consistently constructed to measure quality of life and inequalities, by incorporating indicators that respect social, political, economic, religious, and cultural diversities. The core outputs are new, non-traditional quality of life indicators which can be applied to other populations and in other geographical areas, particularly within Latin America.]
