Summary/Abstract: The present paper is dealing with a term which is intrinsic to our day-to-day life: malaise. And, exactly as in the case of stress, is a state determined by the people, employees and, in the double sense, the impact and the challenges of the business and natural environments on the activities and living standard of the people. Starting from the basic ideas of J. M. Keynes and P. A. Samuelson in this respect, we intend to underline the fact that malaise (and its main form “economic malaise”) is closely linked to less favorable or negative aspects from the people life and activities within entities and communities. We are referring to Depression periods or uncertain future evolutions.This term was spread in specialty literature, so we find assessments about almost all major national economies and even world economy. Different negative aspects of the society (economy) such as crisis, unemployment, debts, support the existence of malaise. In a word, malaise is a state of fact, intrinsic to the people and communities activities, but not in a manner as globalization (which also determines malaise), seen as a mantra, or repeatedly regarding everything is happen now at the local and international levels.
