Book Description
In this timely book, Kenneth Newton showcases classical and modern theories of political trust, expertly examining it in the wider context of diverse national, social, economic and political conditions.
Newton investigates cutting-edge current research and pathways for future research in the field, presenting empirical studies highlighting political trust’s importance, variations, origins and consequences. He demonstrates that political trust is a useful and highly important symptom, but not a cause, of political conditions. Through exploration of the relationship between political trust and democracy, Newton illustrates that functions often attributed to political trust alone may be carried out by non-political institutions and practices instead.
