Confidence in institutions: Estonia, Latvia and Lithuania

Zepa, Brigita
Because of several conditions, it is rather difficult to carry out an analysis of political trust in the post-Communist countries, including the Baltic States. On the one hand, these are countries where the traditions of democracy are only in the process of formation. We could assume, therefore, that, as democracy develops, the trust of the people both in the government as well as civic institutions would grow. However, the findings of Western researchers, made from surveys in their own countries, may be regarded as not supporting such an assumption.
