What do the Portuguese think about work? And the Dutch about family? What do the French think about religion? These and many other questions are answered by the European Values Survey (EVS), one of the oldest studies on attitudes and values carried out in Europe, which provides information on beliefs, preferences, attitudes, values and opinions of citizens across Europe.

 

A unique project when it comes to monitoring and mapping values in Europe, it collects a wealth of information in a wide range of areas – politics, life in society, issues related to the perception of well-being and happiness, morality, migratory movements, the role of the welfare state, social networks, climate change, among others – and allows us to draw a profile for each country, find out what brings us closer to and what distances us from citizens of other European countries, identify and compare trends of stability or change over the past three decades in Portugal and in other European countries. It is therefore a study that may be of interest to a very broad public, ranging from academia to policy makers, from teachers and students to journalists and the general public.

 

The fifth edition of the European Values Study, now presented, counted on the participation of 34 countries. In Portugal it was coordinated by researchers from the Institute of Social Sciences of the University of Lisbon, Pedro Magalhães and Alice Ramos, with the financial support of the Calouste Gulbenkian Foundation, the “la Caixa” Foundation and the Foundation for Science and Technology.
