Geert Hofstede has completely rewritten, revised and updated Culture′s
Consequences for the twenty-first century, he has broadened the book′s
cross-disciplinary appeal, expanded the coverage of countries examined
from 40 to more than 50, reformulated his arguments and a large amount
of new literature has been included. The book is structured around five
major dimensions: power distance; uncertainty avoidance; individualism
versus collectivism; masculinity versus femininity; and long term versus
short-term orientation.
