    This book is intended to provide a new approach to the study of global values and global value change, based on international survey data, above all, the World Values Survey. However much we appreciate the enormous scientific value of the intemational data collection of the World Values Survey, initiated by Professor Ronald lnglehart, our quantitative and systematic re-analysis of the very World Values Survey data brought us increasingly to question his theories, which rather mechanistically predict a global increase in human security in parallel with the gradual waning of the religious phenomena, and which actually even cherish the tendencies brought about by such a waning of the religious element in advanced western democracies: lngleahrt spells them out: higher levels of tolerance for abortion, divorce, homosexuality; the erosion of parental authority, the decrease of the importance of family life et cetera. One basic message of our analyses based on hundreds of thousands of interviews recorded in the World Values Survey data base, calculated by advanced statistical multivariate analysis is that democratic and liberal values can also correspond to a civilization, characterized by an enlightened religion, in the West and in the Muslim world alike.
