About this ebook
Literature Review from the year 2008 in the subject Politics - International Politics - General and Theories, grade: A-, University of Toronto, course: Comparative Politics of Industrial Society, language: English, abstract: This paper will scrutinize Inglehart’s theoretical framework, arguing that the dichotomy between materialism and postmaterialism represents a useful analytical tool that is applicable to the advanced industrial societies. It will also be argued that the framework is by no means comprehensive and has to be developed further so as to fit a complex reality of the post-post-industrial world. The model suggested by Inglehart suffers from several theoretical and methodological problems that will be addressed in the following sections.
