Abstract

The article presents a comparative overview of religiosity in 45 European societies (48 countries and territories) based on data of the 4th wave of the European Values Study (2008-2010), taking into consideration the belief in continued conscious existence after death, religious self-identity, religious exclusivism, and attendance of religious services. In the light of this data, some considerations are offered regarding the applicability of secularization theory to explaining contemporary religiosity in societies of the European continent.
