Understanding three years of pandemic in Colombia: values and citizenship.
We present the Values in Crisis database (a subproject of the World Values Survey) as a contribution to managing knowledge about values, political culture, social capital, crisis, and welfare policy, emphasizing the middle class. In addition, we welcome the World Values Survey project to the Alberto Lleras Camargo School of Government of the Universidad de los Andes and the formation of an alliance between civil society organizations for the use, dissemination, and social appropriation of the data.
Half-Baked Democratization? Political Culture and Social Change in Chile, Colombia and Perú.
The purpose of this article is to present an analysis of the results of the World Values Survey (WVS) in comparative perspective for the sixth wave conducted between 2010 and 2014. We focus on the relationship between social capital and democratic values. The WVS allows to keep track of the social, political and cultural changes that affect over 90 countries worldwide. International comparisons are made for the data available for Chile, Colombia and Perú. We explore the main descriptive trends and run a series of tests through multivariate data analysis to understand what sociocultural conditions are interwoven in these countries to facilitate or block the process of democratic consolidation.
