Country differences in sex-role attitudes: Cultural and economic explanations (Kalmijn) -- Cross-national differences in public consent to divorce: Effects of cultural, structural and compositional factors (Gelissen) -- Religious and moral pluralism in contemporary Europe (Draulans, Halman) -- Unity produces diversity: The economics of Europe's social capital (Bovenberg) -- European identity and inter-religious dialogue (Hirsch Ballin) -- One European world of welfare or many: The role of values, behavior and institutions (Muffels) -- European surrogate (Berns) -- He who tears down also builds up. Literature and the debate on norms and values (Goedegebuure) -- Europe: A question onto itself? (Loose).
This volume deals with the values of the people in contemporary Europe. Using the survey data from the European Values Study, a number of basic values and the dynamics of value change are explored from an economic, political, social, and religious-moral point of view. Part 1 focuses on Europe's values from an empirical-analytical, and a historical point of view, and also presents the views of three eminent Europeans. Part 2 deals with in-depths analyses of European values, based on the empirical data set covering basic orientations in most of the domains of human life. Part 3 contains reflections on the empirical findings, the value of value research, the hidden assumptions behind it, and the deeper layers of Europe's position and developments.
