To investigate this issue, the study used a cross-sectional study based upon SIFOs välfärdsstatsundersökning (welfare state survey) from 2010, using a simple random sample. In order to properly attempt to research these attitudes a divide of the world’s countries was made, generating different zones with appropriate countries within each zone based on such things as;
cultural history, religious belief and, to some extent, geographically factors.The study has reviewed questions regarding unemployment, ealthcare, elderly care and education.The result shows that there is a slight difference in attitudes and trust between different zones,thus implying that Inglehart and Baker’s modernization theory appears to be correct.
Certain world zones appeared to share the same level of trust and attitudes as Sweden.However other zones, although almost always sharing the same attitudes as Sweden, showed a more noticeable difference of a lower level of trust when it came to the Swedish welfare state. (Less)
