Abstract

The chapter looks into the determinants of political trust in Central Europe. We focus on four types of political trust determinants: policy outcomes-based explanations; policy congruence and political distance; support for key democratic principles; and general and particular social trust. Our findings suggest the quality of public administration has an important role in facilitating citizens’ support for the political regime. Focusing on democratic values, we find that both democratic and autocratic preferences boost political trust. When considering ideological and policy congruence, we find that traditional worldviews, as well as left-right proximity to the current government, also have an effect on political trust. Finally, where populist parties are in power, trust in government is higher.
