In The Rhythm of Modernization, Raul Tormos analyses the pace at
which belief systems change across the developed world during the
modernization process. It is often assumed that value change
follows the slow rhythm of generational replacement. This book,
however, reports trends that contradict this assumption in the
field of values. Challenging Inglehart's modernization theory, the
transition from traditional to modern values happens much quicker
than predicted. Many "baby-boomers" who were church-going, morally
conservative materialists when they were young, become unchurched
and morally tolerant postmaterialists in their later years. Using
surveys from multiple countries over many years, and applying
cutting-edge statistical techniques, this book shows how citizens
quickly adapt their belief systems to new circumstances throughout
their lives.
