Abstract	Examined the relationship between Inglehart's and Schwartz's value dimensions at both the individual and the country levels. By rotating one set of items toward the other, it is shown that these value dimensions have more in common than previously reported. The ranking of countries (N = 47) based on Schwartz's Embeddedness-Autonomy and the Survival-Self-Expression dimensions reached a maximum of similarity (i.e., r = .82) after rotating Inglehart's factor scores 27 degrees clockwise. The correlation between the other pair of dimensions (Schwartz's Hierarchy-Mastery-Egalitarianism-Harmony and Inglehart's Traditional-Secular-Rational values) was near zero before and after rotation. At the individual level (N = 46,444), positive correlations were found for Schwartz's Conservation-Openness dimension with both of Inglehart's dimensions (Survival-Self-Expression and Traditional-Secular-Rational values). The highest correlation with this Schwartz dimension was obtained at the Secular-Rational/Self-Expression diagonal (r = .24) after rotating the factor scores 45 degrees clockwise. It is concluded that Schwartz's and Inglehart's originally proposed two-dimensional value structures share one dimension at the country level and some commonality at the individual level, whereas the respective other pair of dimensions seem to be more or less unrelated.
