Abstract: Facet Theory is used to develop a typology of values based on an empirical study of values among French Jews. Each of the analytic tools used revealed a unique facet of the data, which together gave a rich picture of both the study population and the concept of values. SSA revealed a polar structure of six categories of values arranged around a central value. Two axes are identified, one political, one social. POSAC identified four basic profile types of French Jews which are then re-introduced into the SSA map. The resulting typology may be verified among other populations.
