In the past two decades the study of trust in institutions has become a minor industry of research catching up with the scholarship on social trust. Yet, despite the growing literature on the institutional trust, a number of problems have still remained unaddressed, unanswered or unsettled. The project seeks to address the questions raised in the call by focusing on those issues which so far have not received the necessary amount of attention in the literature, or if they have, their study yielded contradictory results and perplexing conclusions.
The project is founded by Eurofound.
