Personal and Religious Values

This chapter provides information about both personal and religious values of the Scandinavians. To what degree have the social welfare systems contributed to giving people in the Nordic countries satisfaction with their lives? Have these welfare systems affected people’s feelings of being able to determine their own lives? Have they had any influence upon what moral qualities people regard as important in the education of the coming generation? And what impact do they have as to people’s greatest concerns for the future?

How far has secularization proceeded in Scandinavia? How much do people still believe in God and other religious phenomena in the different Nordic countries? Do people still believe in any guidelines for what is good and evil or has postmodernism eliminated these? Has any socialist ideology affected their view of the basic nature of man, as principally good or bad? These are some of the questions that will be illuminated in this chapter.
