Mapping Culture
I had never come across the Inglehart-Welzel Cultural Map until recently, but it looks absolutely fascinating and the sort of thing that those in cross-cultural ministry might find interesting. The X-axis measures survival versus self-expression, and the Y-axis measures traditional versus secular values.
The key thing is the numerical data rather than the coloured shapes; at least one of the groupings (“African-Islamic”) sounds a bit arbitrary to me. But if you have a lot more people from Hong Kong, or Ukraine, in your community now than you did three years ago (like we do), it might be worth reflecting on how these cultural differences cash out in practice.
