Does Religion Influence Attitudes Concerning Public Sphere? Comparative analysis
In the three waves of ISSP studies religion proves to be a strong predictor in most countries in wide variety of socio-political attitudes and behaviours. Following these findings, and based on the 2008 Religion IV module the purpose of this paper is to compare attitudes in six Central and East European countries (Croatia, Czech Republic, Latvia, Slovak Republic, Slovenia and Ukraine) towards religion´s credibility in society, social perception of religion´s power, perception of religion´s potential to bring conflicts or intolerance and attitudes towards religious extremism. First research question that would be addressed reflects how much confidence do people have in churches and religious organizations in comparison with some other social institutions like parliament, business and industry, courts and legal system, school and educational system? On the second level of the analysis social perception of religion´s power would be explored within socio-demographic and socio-religious context. Do different age-cohorts have different perceptions of religion´s power in society and do these perceptions differ considering religious landscape in each of societies. Final research question asks if religion is perceived as a potential for peace and tolerance or conflicts and intolerance and how should be religious extremists treated. We expect differences in listed attitudes in relation to different levels of religiosity established in mentioned six CEE countries (highest in Croatia and Slovak Republic, then in Latvia an Ukraine, followed with Slovenia and as least religious Czech Republic).
