Rezensionen
'Freedom Rising is a singularly impressive study of how social modernization can transform societies and their citizens. Welzel marshals data from the World Values Survey to support his human empowerment model with an impressive store of empirical evidence. This is likely to be the decade's most important book on political development and political culture.' Russell J. Dalton, University of California, Irvine
