ÌÀÍ·Ìõ the Archive

The Seligson Political Culture Survey Archive preserves 82 surveys conducted in 17 countries between 1975 and 2005 — including the Seligson-Gómez Data Bank of Surveys on the Political Culture of Democracy in Costa Rica. These scientific surveys explore democratic political culture and a wide range of related topics that continue to inform research today.

Dr. Mitchell A. Seligson's pioneering work laid the foundation for the AmericasBarometer series, which has continued this research since 2004 — this archive picks up right where his original surveys leave off.
