New Democracies Barometer 1996

The New Democracies Barometer (NDB) surveys were conducted in the years 1991, 1992, 1994, 1996 and 1998. The aim of the NDB is to evaluate long-terms developments in economic, social and political attitudes. Differences in the attitudes in the new democracies on the one hand and Austria as “control-country” or “referenz-country” on the other hand are presented. Identifying trends in the public opinion within the particular countries and serving as a monitor for the public opinion in this geopolitical part of Europe are other goals. The insight which is particularly of interest in the NDB is the development of standard indicators to operationalise and quantify the social, economic and political change in the transition from planned economy people’s democracies to market-based democracies.新民主国家晴雨表（New Democracies Barometer, NDB）调研于1991、1992、1994、1996及1998年开展。该数据集的核心目标是评估民众经济、社会与政治态度的长期演变态势。数据集同时呈现了新民主国家与作为"对照国"或"参考国"的奥地利之间的民众态度差异。此外，识别特定国家的公众舆论趋势，并充当欧洲该地缘政治区域内公众舆论的监测工具，亦是其重要目标。该数据集尤为关注的核心内容，是构建可操作化并量化衡量从计划经济型人民民主国家向市场经济民主体制转型过程中，社会、经济与政治变迁的标准指标体系。
