This study of contemporary political culture examines belief
systems among youth elites in five countries that share not only
roughly comparable economies, social structures, and cultural
environments, but also the same political tradition: Canada, the
United States, Britain, Australia, and New Zealand. Based on a
survey of over 3,000 senior undergraduates conducted between 1980
and 1987, it focuses on attitudes towards government, feminism,
minority rights, and equality in an effort to determine whether
there are significant differences in the political cultures of the
five Anglo-American democracies. The youth elites studied here are
part of a generation that now wields substantial economic power and
that has succeeded in fundamentally altering and expanding the
political agendas of all the advanced industrial democracies.
Nevitte and Gibbins argue that the attitudinal structures of these
youth elites have far-reaching consequences.
