The Atlas of European Values

"Every attempt to codify European values is inevitably confronted by a variety of diverging national, regional, ethnic, sectarian, and social understandings."

Krzysztof Michalski, chairman of the Reflection Group on the Spiritual and Cultural Dimension of Europe

The Atlas presents European ideas and beliefs in the form graphs, charts and maps. Values such as democracy, freedom, equality, human dignity and solidarity are held by almost all Europeans, but the survey points to differing views about marriage, religion, work and such topics as euthanasia, happiness, sexuality and death.

This unique Atlas covers all European nations from Iceland to Turkey, from Portugal to the Ukraine. It graphically illustrates the rich diversity that is Europe.
