  The Generational Value Divide and the Changing Context of Public Policy Making
 
 
Title: The Generational Value Divide and the Changing Context of Public Policy Making
Author: Kanji, Mebs
Appeared in: Journal of comparative policy analysis
Paging: Volume 10 (2008) nr. 1 pages 47-74
Year: 2008-03
Contents: A growing body of evidence suggests that different formative experiences and changing socialization patterns may be fueling an expanding value divide between younger and older generations. Such a development could affect social interaction and the prospects for generating social capital, which may pose a variety of consequences. It could also further complicate the already difficult task of democratic governance and have implications for political support. All of this may create an even more difficult context in which to make public policy decisions. Evidence from the World Values Surveys reported in this analysis suggests that in addition to concerns over population ageing, politicians and policy makers would be well advised to take heed of the potential complications that may be developing in the policy-making context as a result of the generational value divide.
