Abstract
ABSTRACT Analyses of data from the World Values Survey show that generalized trust in highly democratic societies is stable and strong, but it is also strong in highly authoritarian societies. The goal of this study is to specify the mechanism of the relationship between generalized trust and political institutions. I categorize generalized trust as two types: democratic trust and authoritarian trust. When a society features a mixture of democratic and authoritarian trust, generalized trust tends to be weaker because of conflicts between democratic and authoritarian values. As a result, with diffusing democratic values, generalized trust in a society will first be temporally weakened, but eventually it will strengthen.
期刊介绍：
The goal of the Journal of Mathematical Sociology is to publish models and mathematical techniques that would likely be useful to professional sociologists. The Journal also welcomes papers of mutual interest to social scientists and other social and behavioral scientists, as well as papers by non-social scientists that may encourage fruitful connections between sociology and other disciplines. Reviews of new or developing areas of mathematics and mathematical modeling that may have significant applications in sociology will also be considered.
The Journal of Mathematical Sociology is published in association with the International Network for Social Network Analysis, the Japanese Association for Mathematical Sociology, the Mathematical Sociology Section of the American Sociological Association, and the Methodology Section of the American Sociological Association.
