Only four nations are of shear, especially China (83 percent satisfied) and Germany (73). Also in Brazil (65 percent) and Turkey (57) Optimism prevails.
Crisis of capitalism model
Compared to a similar Pew survey in 2008 - ie before the onset of the global financial crisis - the loss of confidence is striking. This also leads to a crisis of capitalism model. Eleven of the 21 countries surveyed believe at most half of the respondents, free market economy would lead to greater general prosperity.

Pessimism in the U.S., Europe and Japan
Thus, a sharp contrast between the results of the more optimistic mood in emerging countries like China, Brazil, India and Turkey - and a pessimistic attitude in the U.S., Europe or Japan.

Only about one in ten Europeans and Japanese have also believe that his descendants would be easy to achieve greater prosperity and better earnings. By comparison, 57 percent of Chinese are convinced that their children will succeed in social advancement without problems.
