This book contends that beneath the frenzied activism of the
sixties and the seeming quiescence of the seventies, a "silent
revolution" has been occurring that is gradually but fundamentally
changing political life throughout the Western world. Ronald
Inglehart focuses on two aspects of this revolution: a shift from
an overwhelming emphasis on material values and physical security
toward greater concern with the quality of life; and an increase in
the political skills of Western publics that enables them to play a
greater role in making important political decisions. Originally
published in 1977. The Princeton Legacy Library uses the latest
print-on-demand technology to again make available previously
out-of-print books from the distinguished backlist of Princeton
University Press. These editions preserve the original texts of
these important books while presenting them in durable paperback
and hardcover editions. The goal of the Princeton Legacy Library is
to vastly increase access to the rich scholarly heritage found in
the thousands of books published by Princeton University Press
since its founding in 1905.
