Value Contrasts and Consensus in Present-Day Europe: Painting Europe's Moral Landscapes (European Values Studies; Volume 15) by Edited by Wil Arts and Loek Halman - 2014

BRILL, 2014. Hardbound. New Book. Hardbound. Social scientists from across Europe interpret the statistics in the 2012 second Atlas of European Values from the 2008-10 fourth wave of the European Values Study survey. They emphasize values that seem to have changed or be changing since the 2005 first Atlas. Among the topics are European integration and fears about job losses, the relative deservingness of the unemployed in the eyes of the European public, conventional and unconventional political participation, religious vitality and church attendance in Europe, whether public good morality in Europe is an impact of communist rule, and whether country-level trust is associated with self-assessed health in Europe.
