More about the book
Challenging conventional views, Pippa Norris explores the complexities of trust in societies, proposing a new four-fold typology that contrasts citizen trust with government competency, integrity, and impartiality. Utilizing data from the European and World Values Surveys across over 100 societies, she highlights the potential dangers of excessive trust in authorities, suggesting that the risks associated with blind faith are often overlooked. Norris's analysis invites a reevaluation of how trust is understood and its implications for governance.
