From ancient times to the present, the subject of happiness has been researched and discussed from different perspectives. What happiness is, whether happiness really exists, how it can be obtained if it exists, why people desire happiness, etc. The subjects were constantly discussed, tried to be defined and tried to give a meaning. In general, happiness has been discussed within the framework of moral philosophy, but it has also been examined and evaluated in fields such as psychology, politics and law. In most of the moral philosophy currents, people agree that the last goal they want to achieve is happiness, but they differ in what the nature of happiness is, in which areas it is achieved and to what extent it is realized or realized, and the determination of the place of happiness in human life.
