Analysis of religious trends from 1981 to 2007 in 49 countries
containing 60% of the world’s population did not find a global
resurgence of religion—most high-income countries were becoming less religious—however,
it did show that in 33 of the 49 countries studied, people had become
more religious (Norris and Inglehart, 2011). But since 2007, things have

Turkey: Erdogan’s popularity drops to lowest level
Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan’s popularity rating
has fallen to its lowest level since October 2018, according to a new
survey.
Pollster company Metropoll’s findings also showed that public approval for the Turkish leader had dropped by almost two points since December 2019, from 43.7 percent to 41.9 percent in January this year.
Experts believe the main underlying reasons for the wane in support for Erdogan were due to his authoritarianism and power grabbing which were damaging the country’s democratic institutions.
Berk Esen, an academic in international relations at Bilkent University in Ankara, also blamed a reduction in voter confidence on the declining state of the economy and other crises both at home and abroad.
Over the past two years the Turkish lira has weakened by 36 percent and investment in the country has plunged over concerns of state intervention in the economy and heightened geopolitical risks.
