Indices, réalisé par Vincent Glenn Peut-on, en 2011, mesurer le progrès d’une société à l’aune de son PIB ? Le bonheur est-il comptable ? Comment inventer de nouvelles mesures de l’état du monde ?

Nombreuses sont les théories qui tentent de « catégoriser » les différences culturelles. À ces dimensions, peuvent s’ajouter celles de Hall :
