      abstract = {This open access volume features a data-rich portrait of  what young adults think about the world. It collects the  views of students in higher education from various cultural  regions, religious traditions, linguistic groups, and  political systems. This will help readers better understand  a generation that will soon rise to power and influence.  The analysis focuses on 12 countries. These include Canada,  China, Finland, Ghana, India, Israel, Peru, Poland, Russia,  Sweden, Turkey, and the USA. It employs a mixed-methods  approach, invested in the study of an individual's views  and values using state-of-the-art methodology, including  the innovative Faith Q-sort. This instrument is new to the  field and developed for assessing the entanglement of  subjective views and personal beliefs. The study also  incorporates a comprehensive values survey as well as other  survey tools that look into people's social capital, media  use, social values alignment, and subjective well-being.  Each chapter is co-authored by an international team of  scholars with research interest in the particular topic.  The rationale for this principle is the need to engage  individuals from different cultural backgrounds, scholarly  disciplines, and methodological and substantive  competences. In the end, this innovative approach presents  an informed, empirically grounded analysis of the values  and worldviews of the future generation. It sheds an  important light on how changes in the religious landscape  are intertwined with broad and diffuse processes of  socio-economic and global cultural change.},
