Summary: | This article aims to analyse the presence of and relationship
between the most relevant comparative social research thorough
international surveys and public policies reflected in the different
official bulletins or gazettes of the countries of southern Europe,
specifically Spain, Portugal and Italy. Following a consideration of
the process of globalisation of research through surveys, four
surveys were selected (Eurobarometer, World Values Survey,
International Social Survey Programme, European Social Survey).
The complex relationships between public opinion and public
policy were also addressed. Finally, it is concluded that the most
prominent international surveys have little or no presence in
public policies in the countries analysed.
