1 DPI413 Survey indicators lh d l l l l h f Inglehart and Welzel Cultural theory of democratization

2 Class Structure 1. What is political culture? 2. Inglehart s theory and evidence 3. Culture and democracy 4 Regional discussion groups selecting 4. Regional discussion groups selecting indicators

3 What is political culture? Components: Values and priorities Cognitive beliefs, attitudes, and opinions, Social norms, behavior, and practices Gabriel Almond and Sidney Verba s The Civic Culture (1963) Attitudes towards the political system and its various parts, and attitudes towards the role of the self in the system. Enduring orientation acquired due to the socialization process

4 Claim that culture matters.. If the democratic model is to develop in new nations, it will require more than the formal institutions of democracy..[it] requires as well a political culture consistent with it..the norms and values of ordinary citizens Almond and Verba The Civic Culture (1963)

5 2. INGLEHART S THEORY

6 Ronald Inglehart s theory The Silent Revolution (1977) Culture Shift (1990) Modernization and Post Modernization (1997) Inglehart & Norris Rising Tide (2003) Norris and Inglehart Sacred & Secular (2004) Inglehart and Welzel Modernization, cultural change and democracy (2005)

7 Theory of cultural change Economic, cultural and political change go together in coherent patterns that are changing the world in predictable ways. Inglehart Ch 1. Probabilistic non linear trajectories, but not precise predictions in all cases

8 Premises of Inglehart s theory Values = personal or social goals Values > attitudes > beliefs Scarcity hypothesis h Socialization hypothesis Maslovian value hierarchy

9 Maslovian Value Hierarchy Social/ self actualization l needs (Post Materialist) Aesthetic Intellectual Belonging and esteem Physical needs (Materialist) Safety Sustenance

10 Predictions Vl Value change > social/political liti l change Generational patterns (pre+post 1945) Decline of old political cleavages ages Class, region, religion Rise of new politics Materialist v. post materialist new parties eg Greens New social movements eg women, gays, environmentalists Demand for democratic reforms New public policy agenda New demands for participation beyond elections New qualityof life issues New left and new right

11 Inglehart and Welzel s theory of democratization Human development Cultural change Sustainable democratization Self expression values influence subsequent democratic institutions (not vice versa) Direct attitudes towards democracy are less important than self expression values

17 Measuring attitudes and values towards democracy Evaluations of democratic performance V163. And how democratically is this country being governed today? Again using a scale from 1 to 10, where 1 means that it is not at all democratic and 10 means that it is completely democratic, what position would you choose? Importance of democratic values How important is it for you to live in a country that is governed democratically? On this scale where 1 means it is not at all important and 10 means absolutely important what position would you choose? Attitudes to democratic autocratic rule V148 V151: I'm going to describe various types of political systems and ask what you think about each as a way of governing this country. For each one, would you say it is a very good, fairly good, fairly bad or very bad way of governing this country? Having a democratic political system; Having a strong leader who does not have to bother with parliament and elections; Having experts, not government, make decisions according to what they think is best for the country; Having the army rule.

18 Measuring post materialism There is a lot of talk these days about what the aims of the country should be for the next ten years. On this card are listed some of the goals which different people would give as top priority. Would you please say which of these you consider the most important? And which would be the next most important? Mat PM Mat PM Maintaining order in the nation Giving people more say in important government decisions Fighting rising prices Protecting freedom of speech

23 3. CULTURE AND DEMOCRACY

24 Why does development strengthen self expression values? Socio economic i development tincreases: Financial capital and economic resources (income and wealth) Human capital and cognitive resources (access to information and education), and Social capital (diversifying human interaction and networks) Reduces constraints (widens objective capacity of people to actaccording according to their own choices) Leads towards self expression values (subjective aspirations for choice) In turn, self expression values lead towards greater demand d for entitlement to choice, including civil and political liberties, and demand for democratic institutions

25 Measuring self expression values 1. Post materialist values R gives priority to post materialist values (4 item index) 2. Lifesatisfaction and subjective well being R describes self as very or rather happy 3. Tolerance of other s liberty R agrees that homosexuality is justifiable (10 pt scale) 4. Elite challenging civil activity R would sign a petition 5. Generalized interpersonal trust: R agrees most people can be trusted most of the time Is the measure valid, reliable, and robust?

26 Measuring self expression values 1. Post materialist values R gives priority to post materialist values (4 item index) 2. Lifesatisfaction and subjective well being R describes self as very or rather happy 3. Tolerance of other s liberty R agrees that homosexuality is justifiable (10 pt scale) 4. Elite challenging civil activity R would sign a petition 5. Generalized interpersonal trust: R agrees most people can be trusted most of the time Is the measure valid, reliable, and robust?

27 Factor analysis loadings R gives priority i to post materialist ili values (4 item index).87 R describes self as very or rather happy.81 R agrees that homosexuality is justifiable (10 pt scale).77 R would sign a petition.74 R agrees most people can be trusted most of the time.46 25% cross national variations in survival v. self expression values (Aggregate level analysis WVS 78 societies )

28 Defining and measuring democracy 1. Constitutional democracy (exec constraints, t etc) t) Polity IV 20 pt democracy autocracy scale 2. Electoral democracy Vanhanen 100 pt scale (Turnout*party competition) 3. Formal democracy Civil and political liberties Freedom House 12 pt scale Regime change = 4+ pt FH scale change per year Major watershed Effective democracy How far power holders follow legal norms FH scores * WB anticorruption scores

29 Direction of causality? Impact of values (X) on democracy (Y) Test for: Temporal order X t 1 leads to Y t 2 Spuriousness Control for Z (economic development) Autocorrelations Measure of Y t 1 leads to Y t 2

30 Self expression values & democracy

31 Models: 61 nations A. Self expression values, early 1990s Socio econ resources, early 1990s.49**.26 Democracy, FH B. Democracy, FH Self expression values, early 1990s Socio econ resources, early 1990s.81***

32 Why not reverse causality? Living under democracy leads to values? Democratic institutions encourage tolerance, trust, etc? Examine historical i development tin specific cases e.g. post Communist countries Singapore Germany India What of direct attitudes towards democratic ideals and practices?

33 Selecting priorities and indicators 4. DISCUSSION GROUPS

34 Discussion in regional groups 1. What nominal client are you adopting for your report? 2. What are your nominal client s chief priorities concerning democratic governance? 3. Given your client s priorities, what indicators are you selecting to consider how countries compare in your chosen region? 4. Which countries in your region (or elsewhere) do you think might eventually provide good examples of effective reforms andpolicy innovations inyour client s selected priority areas? 5. Which countries in your region might present the greatest challenges on these issues (and why?)
